RATODERO: A little baby died of gastro at Taluka Headquarter Hospital (THQ) Ratodero on Saturday.

According to the heirs, four-year-old baby, Popri, daughter of Maula Bux Bozdar, resident of Thango Khan Bozdar village, died of gastro at Taluka Headquarter Hospital (THQ) Ratodero.

Her father told media persons that THQ had no facility for the children due to which his baby died. Doctors also do not examine the child patients which is why people prefer to go to Larkana. He alleged that hundreds of poor child gastro patients were admitted to the hospital but proper medical treatment was not provided to them.

Duty doctor Ayaz Chandio claimed that the baby had died before reaching the THQ. He further said that about 300 gastroenteritis patients were coming daily at the THQ who were examined by them and treatment was provided to them.
