I would like to take Bangalore\u2019s example to drive a message and draw the attention on the reality of this pandemic. The city authorities initially and constantly boasted that we are the best model in the country in containing the pandemic; look around now, both in mortality and spread including the rate of spreading, we are in the red zone.<\/p>\n<p>And why did this happen? Clearly due to the lack of an integrated approach to tackle the pandemic with a responsible concern and consent between the government and private healthcare providers.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing board analysis and complacency led to the alarming rise of numbers in the city of Bangalore that the whole country is witnessing now.<\/p>\n<p>The calamity is random, but the approach to handling the pandemic cannot be random.<br \/>It is time that India doesn\u2019t shy away from conducting tests just like a polio vaccine drive without fearing the factor of the scarcity in healthcare infrastructure in the country if in case the numbers rise exponentially.<\/p>\n<p>It is time we shift our focus towards the bigger picture and not remain hovering around lockdown and unlocking measures alone.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let us not hesitate to accept the pandemic in it\u2019s real form.
