India’s health care workers, especially doctors, are an overworked lot even under normal circumstances. For instance, there are fewer than one doctor available for every 1,457 Indians, while the World Health Organization recommends a ratio of 1:1,000. In comparison, Australia has three doctors for every 1,000 people; Germany has four.
In any case, these are extraordinary times, increasing the pressure on health care workers manifold. In many parts of the country, doctors themselves have fallen ill following exposure to the virus.
For instance, in Uttar Pradesh’s Lucknow, a 25-year-old junior resident doctor tested positive for Covid-19. In Rajasthan, too, a doctor at a private hospital tested positive for the virus. In the southern state of Kerala, 25 doctors were quarantined after one of their colleagues tested positive.
In West Bengal’s Kolkata, the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (Forda) wrote to the Indian health ministry yesterday (March 24), seeking protection and safety. Several doctors and nurses of New Delhi’s All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) have reported harassment from neighbours, forcing the hospital’s Resident Doctor’s Association to seek government intervention.
