Oxygen shortages have resulted in the death of 33 patients at Dr Sardjito General Hospital in Yogyakarta city in Indonesia. 

Public hospitals in Indonesia's main Island of Java are being pushed to the brink as the highly infectious Delta Variant causes a dramatic spike in cases and strained medical resources.

Health authorities are blaming distribution problems but Sulung Mulia Putra, an official at Jakarta's health agency, says the shortages were temporary and due to distribution issues that were being resolved.
