The Brihanmumbai Maha Municipal Corporation (BMC) has been successful in putting a brake on the speed of Corona in Mumbai. Instead of taking the patients to the hospital, the people of BMC used the method of screening and treating them at their homes. For this reason, the corona here is now under rapid control.
The Supreme Court too had recently praised this method of BMC and asked other cities including Delhi to follow it. In this system of BMC, 'Ward wise rooms' set up by the Municipal Corporation at the departmental level are also playing an important role. It is planned to handle 10,000 patients.
3 lakh to 6 lakh cases in 76 days
Initially, the number of patients in Mumbai was increasing during the second wave of Corona. As of 10 February, a total of 3 lakh 13 thousand were infected in the city. In 76 days, this number reached 6 lakh 22 thousand. If we compare the figures of deaths, on February 10, there were a total of 11 thousand 400 deaths. On 25 April, this number reached 12 thousand 719. During this period 1,319 patients died. The death rate here is 0.04%. This death rate is the lowest in the world.
Private Hospital was acquired
Through the Covid Jumbo Center in Mumbai, 9 thousand beds were prepared and 60% of beds had an oxygen facility added to them. All the private hospitals in the city were acquired. At present, 80% of the beds of 35 large and 100 small hospitals in Mumbai are controlled by the Municipal Corporation. The rate of health services in these hospitals has been fixed. All beds are managed from the ward war room.
More than 6 lakh patients were arranged
From June last year till date, 6 lakh patients have been arranged through this medium. Especially in Mumbai, about 40 to 50 thousand tests are being done every day. It consists of 30 to 35 thousand RT-PCR. All these efforts controlled the number of patients in Mumbai.
Such is the Mumbai pattern of stopping the virus
Under 'Chase the virus', every household went and tested.
Created a 'ward war room' in every department. All beds were managed from this.
The suspects were investigated in crowded places, slums.
9,000 beds were produced at Jumbo Covid Centers.
Provided oxygen facility in 60% beds.
Every day 40 to 50 thousand people were tested.
80% of the beds of private hospitals were controlled by the Municipal Corporation.
Oxygen plants were constructed in all the municipal hospitals.
A centralized oxygen supply was arranged.
Oxygen supply and vaccination
Patients were first supplied with oxygen from the cylinders. There was a considerable waste of time and oxygen in it. As soon as this was noticed, oxygen tanks of 13 to 26 thousand liters capacity were installed in all the hospitals in the municipal area. Centralized oxygen is being supplied in most hospitals.
Mumbai leads in vaccination. To reduce the death rate, 'Mission Zero' is being implemented. Under the 'Mera Parivar Meri Jyoti' campaign, up to 35.10 lakh households have been inspected by health workers and health messengers. Based on their gathering information, 51 thousand people who have been victims of infection have been successful in finding it. Action has been taken on 27 lakh people who did not apply masks. He was also given a mask. This helped to control the number of patients.
Reaching patients first is our priority: Suresh Kakani, Additional Commissioner of Suresh Kakani Municipal Corporation, said, 'Corona infection is happening in large quantities. Seeing this, we reached the crowded areas, markets, streets, railway stations, bus stands, and settlements and found and treated the patient. This brought the number of patients under control. He further explained that during which there was a shortage of Remedesivir at all places. At that time it was available in municipal hospitals.
People interrupted us by making arrangements in advance, but we did not stop: Mayor Kishori Pednekar of Mumbai told, "We were careful from the beginning. Insisted on maintaining continuity in the work. There was no shortage of medicine and oxygen in any hospital. Some people initially tried to build an oxygen plant, but we saved the lives of patients by building an oxygen plant.
