These are challenging times for each one of us. There is a sense of despair and helplessness creeping into society. When this feeling is magnified, it develops into indifference. Where individuals may start thinking that there is nothing to lose or that they have already lost everything. This leads to the type of shocking behaviour that one cannot even imagine. There are reports of black marketing, profiteering, hoarding, disregard of rules, attack on healthcare professionals, police and society seemingly is heading towards chaos.
What is particularly shocking is the blame game that is being played around at the moment. At every level we want to find someone else to blame. And that someone could be the government and politicians, doctors, paramedical staff, police, family members, friends. Public and private property bears the brunt at times.
Agreed there are challenges faced by the health care system, it is overwhelmed by the sheer volumes of patients and has been found wanting at times. But what is equally true is that it has not given in. The sheer dedication of our doctors, paramedical and associated staff and everyone else involved has been inspirational.
Fact of the matter is that health cannot be outsourced. Doctors, equipments and medicines, paramedical staff are the pillars of restoration of health. But every individual also is responsible. A patient who is cooperative, one who follows instructions, who understands and precisely reports symptoms and most importantly who trusts and has faith without being fearful can contribute immensely to the success of the treatment.

Let us all introspect if we confirm to these qualities of an ideal patient. If we do, remember we are doing a favour on ourselves by making the job of the already overloaded healthcare system easier.
Friends, let us all be honest to ourselves and follow COVID appropriate behaviour, be vigilant about our health and that of others around us and seek help without any hesitation or delay, avoiding unwarranted panic.
Ayurveda says, fear/ panic strengthen diseases by weakening the spirit of the patient. This makes recovery slow and difficult. Let us all work together as partners in these difficult times to defeat the pandemic and emerge victorious. And we certainly will because human resilience is infinite.
Reassurance is the best tonic to elevate the spirit, strengthen the resolve and boost morale of patients and those affected. We as healthcare professionals are committed to our jobs and guarantee to do the best we can in the given circumstances. All we expect is for your cooperation in overcoming this together.
Remember, TOGETHER WE CAN…
