The economic strata that is the majority of the population, is also the majority in hospitalization? Is there a useful point there?
refused to accept them due to over-crowding
Oxymoron right there.
And, if this was the scene in a Western nation, you would have used the correct word: “full”, instead of the motivated “overcrowding”.
How much more crass can you be at this? People close to me watched people die in queues outside hospitals, as they too waited with their F&F. Hospitals weren’t “overcrowded”, hospitals and staff were overwhelmed.
I’d like to know how you’d have done better. You can’t conjure up oxygen or great management in the disaster that it was.
You realize that OP lives in India, right? They should be allowed to use whatever words they think describes their situation, without “Westerners” telling them they’re wrong.
Where do you think I live! I wrote about lived experience, maybe you didn’t notice that OP just made a blanket statement that neither matched my experience nor is itself experience.
This is classic third-worldliness porn.

No, we say “overcrowded”. We say, “abandoned by authorities to die of COVID”. We have shitty governments, too.
This sounds like armchair moaning. How would you have set up infrastructure ahead of time to have handled that situation?
