At the 12-hour #SwasthyaMantra telethon, Dr Prashant Saxena, Associate Director, Critical Care Head, Pulmonology & Sleep Medicine, Max Smart Hospital, called COVID-19 a wake-up call. He said that India does not have a developed healthcare system and it is still evolving. Initially, we faced a lack of PPEs, testing facilities and healthcare facilities but gradually we became confident, he said. He further said that initially, there was fear among the doctors, nurses, paramedical staff about getting infected, but now the fear is less.
