In Mewla Gopalgarh hamlet, Jewar district, Uttar Pradesh's northern state, has no hospitals so Covid patients are being kept in Cots under trees. Mewla Gopalgarh, a 90-minute drive from Delhi, has no doctor or health facility and the neighbouring government hospital has no vacant beds. And locals claim they cannot afford private clinics. Alternative medicine practitioners in the village are the ones who set up open-air clinics to help.
