If that Ayurveda medicine is proven, why can’t it be given to all these innocent positive people and cure them in 3 days ?

A hideous example of the magnificence of the grandiose free health system in this country that the government is so proud of and is said to be a role model for other countries.

For a poor country like SL, Health should only be free for for the most vulnerable. The rest should pay according to their income so that better quality equipment can be purchased. We get what we pay for!

The state of this Hospital shows the plight of the economy. It also shows our failures since independence from the British.

This is a hospital? looks more like a public toilet. This is why politicians want to go overseas for treatment. How many billions on Port City, Mattala, Lotus tower, Hambanthota stadium, Colombo Airport new terminal? Disgraceful

Thanks to the DM for exposing this disastrous situation which probably is not the only one of its kind. Years of neglect to address the status of some health facilities is evident. The surroundings for the hard working staff to work and look after patients is pathetic. What have health ministers been doing all these years?

A country that does not understand it's priorities. Who will want to enter a quarantine center such as this , they better die in their homes.

The Services of the hospital personnel has been commended by the patients. No one bothered to comment on that. All our hospitals have such personnel.

While masses are suffering from COVID-19, little princes are playing LPL cricket for their joy. Where are the 6.9 million patriotic voters now?
