Our doctors and nurses normally hear the sounds of ambulance sirens, of the emergency PA system, of the whimpers & cries of the patients, of the MRI machines; but today at 5 pm let us make them hear a different sound. The sound of untold gratitude. Come out, India. #JantaCurfew
The sound of gratitude. May it wander around the wards and whoosh through the drip tubings and permeate gauze and travel faster than a patient's scream and emerge through to the other side unscathed and may it soothe the burnt-out doctor and the exhausted nurse. May it.
In years to come, when they ask how did India lift the spirits of her doctors and her nurses battling on the frontline against all odds, show them this clip, of @Niranja83004384's dadi.
How is it even possible for the Health Minister to say on the floor of the House that his government doesn't know how many doctors have died of CoVID?
This is the same as the Defence Minister saying he doesn't know how many soldiers have died defending our borders.
SHAMEFUL.
Here are the names provided by the Indian Medical Association, of the 382 Indian doctors who laid down their lives saving us. The bravest of the brave.
As penance, @drharshvardhan should read out EACH name in parliament.
The least you can do, sir; being a doctor yourself.
CoVID deaths:
Per million Indians: 53
Per million Indian doctors: 473
