Chennai: Rainbow Hospital's operations suspended after YouTuber posts video of cutting newborn's umbilical cord
Taking action against Chennai-based Rainbow Hospitals for allowing a YouTuber inside the operation theatre and permitting him to cut the umbilical cord of his newborn baby and record it, the Health Department of Tamil Nadu has barred it from all patient care activities for 10 days.
Therefore, the hospital will not be allowed to do any patient-care activities including out-patient services, registration of new patients, conducting elective surgeries, or admitting patients for 10 days. The only exception has been granted to pregnant women who registered with the hospital and consulted doctors there. Such women can be taken to the hospital for deliveries.
