Alt News performed a keyword search on Google and found that in September 2019, The Guardian included some sections of the viral video in their report. “Videos shared on social media show submerged roads and heavy flooding at one of the big hospitals in Patna, the state capital of Bihar, where patients lie on beds barely above dirty water. More than 100 people have died in flooding in eastern India, where vast areas have been inundated by delayed monsoon rains,” as per the report.<\/p>\n
