A joint team of doctors from the Command Hospital, New Delhi and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) will be arriving in Goa tonight to take stock of Naik’s medical condition, the CM said.

The team will decide whether to shift Naik to Delhi for further treatment, he said. A senior health department official said Naik’s health “fluctuated” in afternoon.

“The health condition of Naik is stable all along but his oxygen levels dropped on Monday after which a medical review was done,” Sawant said. He said a team of doctors from AIIMS, Delhi, had visited the private hospital to monitor treatment being given to Naik.

The Union minister was admitted in the hospital near here on August 12 after he tested positive for coronavirus.
