Coimbatore: Patients and visitors at the Coimbatore Government Hospital are expressing growing concern over the increasing presence of stray dogs within the hospital premises. Reports indicate that the canine intrusion is particularly noticeable on the ground floor of Ward 102, where dogs have been frequently spotted roaming freely.

The situation has escalated from previous instances of dogs being present in the hospital compound to now infiltrating the interior of the medical facility. This development has instilled a sense of fear among patients who are already in vulnerable health conditions. Members of the public visiting the hospital have also voiced their apprehensions about potential dog bites.

In light of these concerns, patients and visitors have urgently appealed for immediate action to address this issue. The plea for intervention was formally raised on October 9, highlighting the pressing nature of the problem.

The public expects the hospital administration to take note of this situation and implement appropriate measures to control the movement of stray dogs within the hospital premises.

As the issue continues to persist, it underscores the need for a swift and effective resolution to alleviate the fears of those seeking medical care and to uphold the integrity of the hospital environment.
