Coronavirus: Even if the vaccine arrives… Corona protocol will be applicable for six months, this is complete planning
How long the coronavirus corona infection will last, and when the vaccine will arrive … Amidst this confusion, the regime has asked for six months to fully follow the corona protocol. The Health Department will regularly follow the provisions set under the Kovid-19 Convention Act. Routine sanitization of hospitals, mask mandates in OPD and adoption of physical distance standards. In the meantime, vaccination, non-infectious disease prevention programs, anti rabies injections and delivery arrangements will continue.
… Flu desk will remain in hospitals
CMO Dr. Rajkumar said that the government has instructed OPD services to be fully operational. OPD operations are being started in 12 community and 35 primary health centers from the district hospital. However, a large number of children are missed due to backward vaccinations during the lockdown, whose coverage is necessary. Doctors say that there is a risk of diarrhea, measles, pneumonia and polio among children deprived of vaccination. Here, the introduction of OPD in government hospitals will increase the rush of patients. There is a risk of spreading covid infection. That is why medical staff will sit regularly at the flu desk on campus for six months.
… eye on every respiratory patient
Every patient with symptoms of breathlessness, cough, fever and fainting will be screened. Suspected patients will be admitted to separate wards. After testing with antigen, RT-PCR will also be tested if required. Full record of suspected patients will be kept. The Health Department will keep an eye on every person coming from outside for six months. A team from the Health Department is preparing to tackle malaria, dengue and chikungunya, but the Kovid protocol will be maintained here too.
…. infection from beds and blankets too … must be cleaned
The district has a large number of asymptomatic patients. With no symptoms, they are sometimes admitted due to other diseases, and can infect that bed. In such a situation, the Health Department and the Medical College will not take any risk. The government has asked to use disinfectant of high strength disinfectant for cleaning bedsheets and wards. The health department is looking for solutions that do not harm the health of patients, and destroy the virus. There are separate laundries for patients admitted to other Kovid centers, including medical colleges, while the clothes of other patients are being washed elsewhere. In the winter, there is a risk of further infection from the blanket, in which case the government can make a big change.
