Answer:
Situation so dire that even three patients are often put together in one bed’
Sanjay*, a resident doctor at the Government Medical College in Nagpur, agonises over how he could do nothing as patients collapsed to death right in front of him.
“We are unable to help them because there are simply no beds and oxygen supplies for all the patients flooding in,” he says. The situation is so dire amid the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic that even three patients are put together in one bed oftentimes, he says.It is the helplessness beleaguering healthcare workers that gnaws at Sanjay the most - coupled with simmering anger at what he calls a failed healthcare system - because this is increasingly rendering healthcare workers like him mere bystanders as patients’ oxygen saturation levels plummet and they beg to get admitted. “I would be lying if I say I have not been breaking down after reaching home in the past 15-20 days,” he says.We feel so helpless; we wonder what the point of our education was. Because they are dying of preventable causes - a lot of these deaths could have been prevented if we had the resources (enough resources),” the 26-year-old laments.
Ever since the second wave of the pandemic started, the healthcare system in India has been teetering on the brink, with many hospitals unable to handle the relentless inflow of patients whilst also running short of beds, oxygen cylinders and other essentials.
