NEW DELHI: The management of Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi, which has become one of the main centres to treat coronavirus patients, has asked for details of doctors who are admins of WhatsApp groups, among other hospital staff, to curb misinformation and adverse comments among the staff. “This is required to prevent spreading of any fake news, rumour or any other adverse comments/statements on social media or in the institution by any hospital or college staff," Prem Kumar, additional medical superintendent of the hospital, wrote in a letter to the hospital staff.
A copy of the letter, dated Friday, was seen by Mint. The letter followed certain misinformation that was spreading among the hospital staff, especially about salary deduction
