Health Workers continue to resign; Seeking major overhaul in policies.

                     Scarcity of Health Workers
                                                        -Piyush R. Prusti

This issue is concerning India . Actually why the health workers are unwilling to do their jobs now-a-days ? Is it the fear of COVID ? Definitely not. Since the starting of this deadly COVID-19 pandemic which has no proper treatment or medicine yet,health workers are the one who are making their day and night alike to cure the patients and down surge the active cases. But in these recent weeks,the spike in the COVID cases is a cause of worry for all of us. On the other side many health workers are resigning.There has been oxygen scarcity in the country. Many people are dying for lack of oxygen. It is the government who is controlling the availability of oxygen in the hospitals as per need. If the government cannot make it possible to arrange for the oxygen then how can the health workers save the patients. It is practically impossible on the part of the health workers to save the patients who need oxygen but cannot get it . Some visuals and shots from the media shows that at many places the family members of the COVID  victims are ruthlessly beating the health workers without understanding them that it is not their fault. Not just one or two,there are thousands of such cases happening all around the country for which they have got a negative impact on their duty. For example, a viral video storming the internet and social media is a doctor crying  and saying all about the unwillingness she has to work in the hospital. If this goes on continuing then,there might be a serious problem in the near future.In today's scenario,they are the actual Gods and Goddesses who are wearing the uniform to fight the pandemic and their sacrifices in these times can never be forgotten. They are the one who are actually the warriors and perseverantly striving to not make us worriers.

    Nice work.
    Despite 50% of Indian students working hard and spending a lot for MBBS, there is a deficiency of health workers and doctors. This is the image of new and modern India.

    Indian government should make a council of experts for oxygen supply. The experts are more experienced and intelligent than these election-oriented politicians.
    That's true, what can a health worker do if he/she doesn't have any resource.
    And this dumb policy of self-sufficient India is retarding the vaccination. If one is rich and wants to be vaccinated as soon as possible, he can buy any foreign vaccine from the market.
    People of Delhi are just dying like insects, yet the CM does nothing but cries.
    This is a complete state of chaos in India. And I am damn sure, it would be difficult to recover.

#Cancelled: But Is Justice Having a Blast?

“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me”. That's an old saying some of us have heard for years, but our words are genuinely powerful today. If you are not careful, one wrong word or move could get you cancelled. In the age of digital technology, past and present events are accessible at any time with a click. It has always been a challenging time to summon groups of people to join the public fray to challenge others online for past words or actions. In the digital age, past actions regarded as incongruent with current norms are subject to criticism and rebuke. This phenomenon is now commonly called “cancel culture,” a strategy by groups of individuals using social pressure to shun a target accused of offensive words or deeds. The concept of cancel culture lacks a universally agreed-upon definition. Most definitions centre around themes of accountability but diverge regarding their impact. Cancel culture is a blend of fun and fury that exposes ...
