I watched the nine late news last night and they had a insight into the plight of the Indian public Hospital system and confronting stuff it was to watch. A mother surrounded by her kids in a hospital bed with no staff in sight and them trying to perform untrained CPR on her. A Doctor then casually walks in and very matter of fact checks her pulse and says dont bother anymore she is dead.
The Hospital was just jam packed with similar cases, no proper PPE gear, no oxygen and hardly any staff which given the circumstances isnt hard to fathom given the risks to their health.
The Directors of the hospital were at a clinic next door getting their CoVid jab and denying their was an issue, one Doctor was told what to say by a Director and just gave a heap of spin as a response.
Life is cheap in India but CoVid has made it a lot cheaper and its every man and women for themselves if you are the rank and file working class....
It's challenging vision EB.
I listened to a conversation on the wireless today where folk were arguing that such vision shouldn't be put to air because it shows India in a poor light. What a crock of sh1t!
Yes, India is a developing nation but successive governments have spent billions on armaments and nuclear weapons development. It doesn't help that their neighbours also possess nuclear weapons but their neglect of the health system and the majority of the population is criminal.
