Telangana is Witnessing an Upsurge in Covid Cases
Hyderabad, April 2 (Maxim News): Demand for the implementation of mask-wearing is being raised by Health Experts after an increase in the Covid positive cases in different States. They feel that the situation is like in the middle of the wave as the Telangana state is also witnessing an upsurge in Covid-positive cases.
The Health experts want the Telangana government to encourage wearing masks for a couple of weeks till the wave threat is over. Especially those with symptoms or family members with symptoms should wear masks. The Maharashtra government has made it mandatory for healthcare workers and also visitors in hospitals to wear masks with the increase in cases.
Doctors of GVK EMRI said that for the last one and half years people have forgotten to wear masks. Not many hospitals are following the basic norm of masking. At least those who have symptoms and the family members of the patients should be asked to have masks so that the cases might be decreased, said the doctors.
The cases are on the rise in the country but the intensity of the cases is not much as it does not result in hospitalization. In Telangana also there is a surge in positive cases, there were 21 cases on Friday and 22 cases reported on Saturday. According to the data by the Director of the Health department. However, the change in the pattern is that the children are affected which was not seen during the last two or three waves.
The doctors feel that the Telangana government is not reacting unless there is an alert from the Centre. Even the data released by the ‘state’ is not accurate. A senior doctor said that the tests are being carried out in private diagnostics but the entire data is not coming out. The doctors want the State government to issue orders to make masks mandatory in hospitals, schools, and other public places where there is scope for the spread of the virus, which was followed during the peak pandemic time.
