This means that very soon we will again have mixing of Punjabi and Mallu genes but this time in UK.
The Chinese had the S strain, Europe got the more dangerous L strain. I don't know which strain is doing the rounds in India, but the majority of the cases around the world are not the L strain.
Correction there: are now the L strain.
No availability of regular mask let alone N95 masks.
Public hoarded masks, Hydroxycholoquine ..
( PPE - Personal protective equipment)
For a scan centre , we need category 2 PPE, but finding PPE1 itself is difficult.
A normal mask that is sold to hospital at about 5 ₹ has become 25 ₹ , even that is unavailable.
All doctors are cribbing about unavailability of PPE and closing down hospitals.
Since they cannot ensure their own safety.
This is going to add more trouble s.
Why hospital cannot be given required PPE at the original rates in sufficient numbers..?
Government must take notice of this.
This is going to be bottle neck very soon.

I still feel that there is nothing to worry
This lockdown is only for prevention and propagation of the virus
15 Lac 92 Thousand International Arrivals were screened so far , because they could have brought the virus with them
Out of that 20 thousand had symptomatic infection so they.were.tested
Out of 20 K , 500 were positive and 10 died
In Next 2 week all those having the.virus will be identified and isolated
From what I've understood, the govt screwed up when it came to PPE. Didn't order enough from an early date.
As for masks, it could be a supply chain problem. The govt should find ways to directly transfer equipment to hospitals.
The Testing Backlog is not much
Yesterday I saw a TV interview of Thyrocare chief
He said 3000 are waiting for tests
We are testing at 2 Thousand per day
It can be scaled up , now Private sector
Will start testing

This lockdown has been done because NRIs decided to skip quarantine and have spread the virus everywhere, like that idiot Kanika Kapoor. So I think community transmission started a week ago, so they decided to lockdown the country.
Even 1 person can spread it to thousands in a matter of days.
Thay 15,000 crore budget is specially for medical supplies i think not for any economic activity for public. Given their previous track record and sensitivity I dont think these things will be problems for doctors in coming days.No availability of regular mask let alone N95 masks.

It’s already 2.5 weeks for us. I went out twice to get groceries like milk, vegetables and egg. We are expecting to be locked down at least for next 5 weeks. Some of my friends have big freezers and don’t plan to go out for next 3 weeks.How csn anyone be home for 21 days? What about supplies? Essentials?
Yeah, I don't know whether they're taking advice from medical experts or making it up as they go along. The problem is that people die while herd immunity is established. What they haven't done is rationing for supermarkets. At the moment people are having to make several trips there per week instead of just one, and they have to go at busy times to have the best chance of getting food, so the quarantine is *censored*ing pointless until they fix that.It seems UK was following the same pattern before they decided to get into lockdown mode. Can you confirm? @BMD
