Sindh Hospitals Face Challenges with Hygiene, Water Safety, and Infrastructure
Government hospitals in Karachi and Sindh face worsening conditions, including contaminated drinking water, unhygienic washrooms, overflowing sewage, and inadequate medical facilities. Despite budget allocations, many hospitals lack properly maintained water filtration systems and covered waiting areas. Patients report poor sanitation, insufficient drinking water, and pest infestations. Cleaning is reportedly minimal, raising concerns about public fund utilization and the overall state of healthcare infrastructure in the province.
