Our observations on the Corona Delhi App !

Our observations on the Corona Delhi App: 



1. It's a nice App with a huge lot of information. But truly speaking most of the information is already available on Google. We can just say that it has been consolidated here to check it with ease, especially the availability of beds & ventilators.

2. In case one has a severe Emergency and want to reserve a bed or a ventilator, its not at all possible with this App. We can not communicate with any of the hospitals directly. So no chance of getting any help in a dire emergency. The WhatsApp health help line is just an automated text sharing mechanism & no more. In our opinion, it is not up to anywhere near our expectations. All of us know very well that how the telephones are picked & answered in our system.

3. It may show a few available beds at the peak period but by the time a patient could reach the spot, he may find nothing available. We had thought that we will be able to communicate directly with each & every hospital, could forward a request and could get the confirmation before reaching the spot. But nothing of that kind is possible through this App.

4. Delhi Government must look into it and add the interactive features to give some real relief to the patients as huge rush is expected in the coming days, due to the spread of #covid19 in Delhi.

5. Moreover, the official platform has been used to promote Private hospitals, who have got a grand opportunity to mint huge money out of this #pandemic, by way of enquiries generated through this App. They are already demanding huge sums as deposits before the admission and those with lesser or no money are being refused entry.

6. In return, Delhi Government has not even imposed any restriction on the charges to be collected, no capping @BEP (No Profit No Loss) has been done to give a relief to the #coronavirus patients. The Corporate hospitals can't be allowed to encash a Notified disaster.

7. The Corona Delhi App must mention the Maximum amount that can be charged by each Private hospital very clearly, else a patient who reaches there in Emergency may feel harassed while making the payment, as these hospitals do huge markups on everything, including the consumables, PPE kits, etc. 

8. Honestly speaking, this App clearly shows the inadequacy of health facilities in the National Capital. If we exclude the money-minting Private hospitals or the Hospitals under the Central Government, there is not much available in Delhi to combat the deadly virus. 

9. Delhi Government must take immediate measures to improve significantly, its own health facilities, beds, ventilators in the Govt sector, as the Medical facilities at the Government hospitals are quite inadequate, & an ordinary person can not afford treatment at these Private hospitals.

10. Delhi Government has tried to display a rosy picture by reducing the Corona positive cases a day ago. This has been done by reducing the Tests by almost 38%. The government must avoid such a mechanism to display the wrong picture to the masses, as such techniques won't check the spread of the #coronavirus in Delhi.

Thanks,

But where are the missing corona positive active cases of Delhi ?

We just want to know that as on 28th May 2020, how the 1422 corona positive patients of Delhi are missing in the Delhi Govt Health Bulletin? 

These persons are included in the Total Active cases of Delhi, but not yet admitted to the COVID Hospitals. They are not at the CHC. They are not at the CCC and they are not visible even in the list of Home isolation cases. 

Surprisingly, if these 1422 persons are active corona positive cases, why they are not visible in any of the official categories as stated above? So my question is that where these 1422 persons have gone missing? 

Does it mean they are not yet getting any treatment? 

Does it mean they are still out of the boundaries of being under quarantine? 

Does it mean they might be spreading the virus at the location, wherever they are presently located? 

And does it mean are they really alive or gone missing forever? 


So, does it mean, the figures are the fabricated ones & the truth is being hidden by the vested interests?

On the 17th of May, the figure was 655, 18th 626, 19th 817; 20th 968, 21st 727, 22nd 888, 23rd 851, 24th 717, 25th 933, 26th 723, 27th May 1088, and on 28th May, the figure was 1422 persons. 

But how it is possible that even after inclusion in the list of Active Positive Corona cases of Delhi, they are not getting any treatment? Even if Beds are not available, Home isolation is an open option now.

We had shared similar data on 15th May 2020 also, and the fresh data is being shared again for certain clarifications, remained unanswered so far.
