Newborns Are Dying To Due Lack Of Ventilators In Government Hospital


Nirmal Singh 3C condemns the growing cases of infants dying in the hospitals in India citing an example from the news reported lately from Sanjay Gandhi hospital to Baba Saheb Ambedkar hospital where there were not sufficient ventilators.
This was not it, another death case was seen on Wednesday at one of the Delhi government hospital to another as there were less beds attached to ventilators.

Nirmal Singh 3C further criticized the intensity of the incident as all happened in presence of the chief minister who has directed the health department on Sunday to take the action urgently and immediately implement a plan to ensure that at least the critical patients would get life support system.

Nirmal Singh 3C is upset to inform about the cases where the newborn babies died waiting for the ventilators to support them. In fact, of the newborn infant died waiting for a ventilator in three government hospitals.

Another instance is making noise, where a 27 year old man, Manoj Pooran, had to rush his newly born baby to a Delhi-government run Sanjay Gandhi hospital around 10 because the baby have had developed breathing problems.  “My wife was getting regular check-ups from the hospital but her labour was delayed for three days. On Wednesday morning, she started having very bad pain so we called a dai (nurse) who lives nearby. The delivery was fine, but his breath was shallow. So, the dai asked us to take the baby to the hospital immediately,” said Manoj.

During those weak moments the doctors step forward to check the child and asked Manoj to rush to Baba Saheb Ambedkar hospital because ventilators were installed in and there were no ventilator at Sanjay Gandhi hospital.

Nirmal Singh 3C would further like to quote Manoj, who said: “I took an e-rickshaw to the hospital, but there was a huge traffic jam and it took us nearly an hour to reach the other hospital. The doctor there said that my baby was brought dead. Couldn’t the doctors at Sanjay Gandhi have done something? I was told that he could have survived even if they gave us that balloon like thing.” This was said in context to ambu-bag as it is used to ventilate critical patients in the absence of the same.

Nirmal Singh 3C made a shocking revelation about cigarette and its harmful effects. As the recent study by the French National Center for Scientific Research, cigarette is the main reason of causing stress among people. Nirmal Singh 3C finds it pretty ironical that on one hand people smoke so as to vent out their stress and frustration, while on the other hand it is pilling more on the heap of stress. This has been further substantiated by a news story published in Efe which says:  an exposure to nicotine cause more stress rather than calming a person up. This is in fact causing rise in anxiety-inducing in smokers. The study has been produced after checking lab mice.
