Placard against covid-19 .
ᴀɴꜱᴡᴇʀ :
➯ Those waiting in a queue for their turn to purchase liquor at the Government Wine and Whisky Shop in Doiwala on Tuesday jumped out of their skins when a voice announced on a loudspeaker “No alcohol for those not wearing masks”. Everyone instantly covered their faces with whatever they could find.
In a few minutes, a group of men wearing masks made to resemble the novel coronavirus emerged, carrying placards of relevant advice dispensed by ‘
Corona
Chacha’, a character that has been created by the Doiwala municipal council to drive home the message of social distancing and other precautions to be taken against Covid-19.
The idea of the character is the brainchild of Vijay Chauhan, the executive officer of Doiwala municipal council who also dresses up for the part, complete with a blazing red mask depicting the virus and carrying a mace made to look like the dreaded contagion. As he moves around with his team, he talks to people and tries to sensitise them about the disease, mainly through catchy slogans and one-liners.
For instance, one of the slogans attributed to Corona Chacha goes, “Mask pehno har din bhatije … warna honge corona positive natije (Wear mask, dear nephew, else you will test coronavirus positive).”
Chauhan says he wanted to reach out to people in a manner that was effective which is why, he hit upon the idea of creating a character that dispenses one-liners that get people’s attention. “I participated in slogan writing competitions in college. When the pandemic hit our state, I decided to put that talent to good use,” he said with a smile, adding, “Research shows that the coronavirus is highly contagious and spreads easily. There is no vaccine to prevent it. Awareness is the only weapon we have but I believe many people are still not taking it seriously. So we decided to do our bit.”

Answer:
The global landscape of health care is changing with health systems operating in increasingly complex environments. While new treatments, technologies and care models can have therapeutic potential, they can also pose new threats to safe care. Patient safety is a fundamental principle of health care and is now being recognized as a large and growing global public health challenge. Global efforts to reduce the burden of patient harm have not achieved substantial change over the past 15 years, despite pioneering work in some health care settings.
Patient safety is the absence of preventable harm to a patient during the process of health care, including the reduction of risk of unnecessary harm associated with health care to an acceptable minimum. An acceptable minimum refers to the collective notions of given current knowledge, resources available and the context in which care is delivered, weighed against the risk of non-treatment or other treatment.
Every point in the process of care-giving contains a certain degree of inherent unsafety.
Clear policies, organizational leadership capacity, data to drive safety improvements, skilled health care professionals and effective involvement of patients and families in the care process, are all needed to ensure sustainable and significant improvements in the safety of health care.
