From admitting Corona positive mom with her 4 year old to fighting the virus, first hand experience from Corona Warriors

Understand, don’t break our morale
“We are front faces that you can see fighting corona. There is a very big team working on it. Corona is a big elephant and there are many views of it that we still cannot see. From the first patient till date, doctors, nurses, ward boys, cleaning staff, and police staff.
Even cops stayed with us for 8 hours protecting us from attacks. I want to talk about people who are behind curtains. Nurses have worked for many shifts while wearing PPE kits as well. Being in PPE kit for hours is a bigger challenge for medical staff than treating patients.
We have tried to save every life. Many people are scared to get out of house, but doctors and nurses are scared of going home. We urge people to support and motivate us and not break our morale.”
Dr Salil Bhargava

Giving world class treatment is a posiitve
“I express gratitude to Moti Singh. It is because of Dhudh Sangh that I could work peacefully, as I knew both my kids are getting their milk and bread at home.
Dr Bhargava is my teacher. Dr Pandey and I have discussed every case everyday during these times. Corona has challenged us, but it has also given us many lessons to learn from.
It is a moment to learn how we can work together as a team and counter the biggest challenges with collective effort. The biggest positive as I see it, is that we have been able to give world class treatment in Indore. Treatment which is not even available in developed countries like America and Europe, we have been able to give to our patients in Indore.”
Dr Ravi Dosi

Corona will fall, lesser mortality rate in coming days
“Indore has won 90 percent battle against corona only because of our collective effort as one. From society, district administration, politicians to corona warriors, we all have worked together with one aim to beat corona.
Indore is becoming a role model for other states and cities all over the world. We are just representing a team where a mother is leaving home after feeding the child to work in PPE kit in 18 to 20 hours. You cannot imagine one hour in PPE kit, it is a scary experience.
We have to be prepared to lose some lives but we have to save as many as possible. In the coming days, cases will be more even now, but mortality rate will come down. Coronavirus will see a downfall like influenza. 
My elder sister’s family in Ghazibad was attacked by corona. Out of 11 family members, 9 tested positive but the other two remained negative by taking requisite precautions.
We must recall that there are many such viruses that have troubled us before. Corona is likely to mutate and attack us again, but what changes is our immunity to fight it. We need to look at the positive aspects.”
Dr VP Pandey

Being in the red zone hospital
“Indore did not have corona effects as much in March. We were carefully planning and preparing ourselves. Soon in the end of March, there was a sudden spike in corona cases.
We were in red zone hospital. Initially, we had 500 beds permission to treat patients. Now, with the cases rising, we increased capacity to 900 beds.
Our biggest challenge was staff, as our hospital is far from the city. District administration helped us and now we have cured 1,200 patients successfully.”
Dr Sudhir Mourya

Admitting a mom on mother’s day, supporting as warrior
“We are a part of SDM team in going to various areas in the city and bringing in corona patients. When we came to know about going to such areas, it was a challenging experience to go and tell people that they are corona positive.
The incident of Tat Patti really broke our spirit, but with support from Indore we could get up again and continue to fight the battle against corona. We have seen extremely bad phase. It was heart breaking to go and tell someone that they are corona positive.
We would motivate them and tell them that they will be okay. The most heart breaking experience for me was on Mother’s day.
On Mother’s day, we went to a family and admitted 12-month toddler, 4-day-old baby and their mother. The mother actually questioned me if this is what I want to give her on Mother’s day. It broke my heart, but I assured her that she will recover with her children.
Thankfully after 10 days, I got a call from her to say thank you. All three recovered and returned home.”
