I think there is a greater responsibility on patients too.

Doctors say, 80% effort has to be from patients. If a patient does not follow #COVID19 protocols/instructions given by Doctor, panics then it will be more difficult

#Remdesivir is to be given not to everyone who tests positive.

Remdesivir isn't a 'Ram-ban', it only decreases viral load in people who need it.

- Dr. Naresh Trehan, Chairman, Medanta Hospital

#IndiaFightsCoronav
Today we have enough oxygen if we try to use it judiciously. We don't want to waste oxygen.

Do not use oxygen as a “security blanket”. Waste of oxygen will only lead to depriving someone who needs it.

- Dr. Naresh Trehan, Chairman, Medanta Hospital

#IndiaFightsCorona
Following #COVID appropriate behavior is the first line of defence and the most effective way to prevent the virus from spreading.

Don't rush to the hospitals, just because you've tested positive.

If your O2 saturation is above 94% then there is no problem. But if it is falling after exercise, then, you need to call a doctor. It's important you get the right treatment at the right time: Dr Devi Shetty, Chairman, Narayana Health
There is a possibility that you may be asymptomatic, then, doctors will tell you to stay at home, isolate yourself, wear a mask and check your oxygen saturation every 6 hours: Dr Devi Shetty, Chairman, Narayana Health
If you have any symptom like body ache, cold, cough, indigestion, vomiting- I have one important message- get yourself tested for #COVID19. It is the most important thing: Dr Devi Shetty, Chairman, Narayana Health

Dr. Randeep Guleria, Dr. Naresh Trehan and Dr. Devi Shetty addressed some common misconceptions and apprehensions surrounding #COVID19

Here are the highlights of the discussion 👇
AIIMS Director, Dr. Randeep Guleria speaks on who needs oxygen.

In healthy individuals with oxygen saturation 93-94, there's no need to really take high flow oxygen just to maintain your saturation at 98-99 (1/3)

#IndiaFightsCOVID19
Oxygen is a treatment, it's like a drug. Taking oxygen intermittently is an absolute waste of oxygen. There is no data that shows that this will be of any help to you & therefore you shouldn't do: AIIMS Director, Dr. Randeep Guleria
