Following a supply outage, oxygen levels in numerous hospitals in the city fell to dangerously low levels. After a massive intervention, supplies were restored by late evening.

(i) According to the Indian Council of Medical Research, only a small percentage of those who were vaccinated tested positive. These outbreaks of illness did not, however, call into question the efficacy of immunization as the vaccines clearly protect against disease.

(ii) Hospitals in the city may soon face oxygen shortages as well. The Centre has a control team that will settle disagreements between states over oxygen delivery. To enable the smooth passing of oxygen trucks, green corridors have been established.

(iii) After a leak in a medical oxygen tank disrupted the availability at a hospital, several patients on life support suffocated. According to the State Health Minister, the leak was caused by a valve malfunction, and a high-level investigation has been ordered.

Which of the above paragraphs are relevant to the context of the given sentence?

Which of the above paragraphs are relevant to the context of the given sentence?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The given sentence talks about oxygen supply outage and restoration in hospitals.

2. Paragraph (i) discusses vaccination and disease outbreaks, which is unrelated to oxygen supply or hospital oxygen levels.

3. Paragraph (ii) talks about potential oxygen shortages in hospitals, the Centre's control team for oxygen delivery, and green corridors for oxygen trucks — directly related to oxygen supply issues.

4. Paragraph (iii) describes a leak in a medical oxygen tank causing suffocation and investigation — again directly related to oxygen availability in hospitals.

5. Therefore, only paragraphs (ii) and (iii) are relevant to the context of oxygen supply and shortages.
