Health system is in danger of collapsing: Paul

NITI Aayog member (health) VK Paul said that we are going through a very serious and dangerous situation, especially in some districts. But the whole country is at risk, so we have to make all efforts to break the virus chain and save lives. He warned that hospital and ICU-related preparations will have to be maintained. If matters escalate at this rapid pace, the health system will collapse.

Big reason for increasing the case

Isolation is not occurring properly in most states. People are asked to isolate or quarantine at home, but it is not being monitored properly.

Tests are not being conducted at the pace at which the cases are increasing in the states.

Contact tracing is decreased.

Kovid Approved Behavior is not being followed.
