The nation is the third most affected country in the world, pushing Russia back. A metropolitan city doctor making a fervent appeal to fellow doctors not attending hospital despite the availability of beds and ventilators should enable one feel the extent of panic created by the pandemic and it is understandable that these fears are rational too.The rest of the blog I want to divide the action from the part of the rulers and the ruled too that can provide a kick in the butt .
From the rulers:: The governments may provide to all Covid-19 warriors ( medical and health, sanitation staff, police etc) a substantial increase in the compensations such as insurance coverage to these individuals and their family members.This should cover the costs of hospitalisation in the best possible facilities and also the risk coverage in the event of succumbing to the infection Also special pay in the form of risk allowance equal to a part of monthly pay for at least 3 months to start with, a job to a member of the family in the event of any untoward happening must soon be rolled out as these are all under high risk groups.
Also the governments should hence forth impose a ban on mass gatherings be it for functions or parties or political rallies with hefty fines for violation.Once permission is granted any number of rules or conditions would not help preventing the crowd gathering.Also there is a need for increasing the testing.More number of private labs may be authorised for testing while making the cost accessible to many.
Part II tomorrow on why and what we the ruled should do to mend the situation!
We will meet tomorrow at 8 am
Over to you now!

Contrary to what was said in the beginning of the pandemic it was observed that the virus stays for much longer time in the air therefore chances of getting infected airborne. In my opinion it's suggestive of achieving herd immunity in near future and the virus mutates rapidly only to lose its virility and lethality and may soon subside.

Staying for longer time in air is because of aerosols, which are lighter. The droplets being heavier fall to the ground early.Ya it is true that atleast partial herd immunity is achievable.How long it takes to subside is a question that seems to have no answer at least for now!
