In this week, more than 38.59 lakh patients have recovered

Presently, there are only 4 states, that is,
Stating these, the Health Secretary presented a graph

A similar graph plotting the trend of daily average deaths
in a week-on-week basis in the top five states, shows an increasing trend in
This apart,
In reply to a media query on oxygen supply for COVID-19
patients, the Health Secretary stated, while India has a capacity of
manufacturing 6,900 Metric Tonnes oxygen on a daily basis, around 2,800 metric
tonnes of oxygen are required for COVID-19 and non-COVID health use, while
around 2200 metric tonnes are used up for industrial purposes. Hence, at the
national level there is no shortage of oxygen and today morning, there was a
surplus of 1,900 metric tonnes of oxygen. Further, as per today morning's report,
roughly 6% of COVID-19 patients nationally required oxygen support. Stating
these, the Health Secretary said, the problem arises when there is no oxygen
inventory management and when there is a possible shortage of alert generation
mechanism at the hospital level which needs to be monitored by states and UTs,
so that replenishment can be done in a timely manner. He added, Health Ministry
has held detailed meetings with states, in which it has been advised to start a
control room for monitoring oxygen supply and requirements on a daily basis. A
virtual control room has also been started at the level of the Union
Government, where a Joint Secretary each from the Health Ministry and the
Department of Industries, and an officer each from PESO and DCGI are in charge.
Their contact numbers and email IDs are in public domain.
In reply to a query on the latest updates on vaccines,
DG-ICMR, Prof. (Dr.) Bhargava stated, Cadila and Bharat Biotech's Phase 2
trials are under process, while Serum Institute is about to start its Phase 3
trials at 15 sites in the country. Speaking about the vaccine developed in
Answering a media query on effectiveness of plasma therapy,
Dr. Bhargava said, randomised control trials conducted on 464 patients at 39
hospitals in 25 districts across 14 states/UTs has shown that it does not
reduce mortality or prevent progression from moderate to severe disease.
However, the DG-ICMR also clarified that these findings are under peer-review.
The National Task Force and Joint Monitoring Group of the Ministry of Health
and Family Welfare will take a decision on continuity of plasma therapy once
the full publication comes out after peer review of the findings. "There
are a few cases where reactions can occur and that is why we will take a
considered view once we get the full publication of this study", stated
DG, ICMR.
While addressing a query on sero-survey, DG, ICMR stated,
the national sero-survey, which was done in April-May and is being repeated
after three months, has been completed in 68 out of 70 districts. After
analysis of the results by this month end, the two studies can be compared. He
added that sero-survey also brings out infection fatality rate, which was found
to be between 0.5-0.6 in the last national sero-survey, which was much below
that in many other countries.
In reply to a query, Health Secretary stated, recently
a guidance note on
countering post-COVID complications has been issued.

was also conveyed to States to complete training up to district level by 20th March 2020.
Training on Infection Prevention and Control was also made
available for all category of healthcare workers on the iGoT platform.
States were asked to constitute Infection Prevention and
Control committees. Hospitals were also to identify a nodal officer who will
monitor the healthcare workers and review their exposure status. High risk
exposures are placed under quarantine for 7 days. Based on their
exposure/clinical profile such doctors, nursing officers and other health
workers, a decision shall be taken by the Nodal Officer/Head of the Department
(or his appointed Sub-committee) for further period of one week. An advisory
for managing health care workers working in COVID and Non-COVID areas of the
hospital was issued by Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on 18th June, 2020.
Guidelines on rational use of PPEs for hospital and
community settings (including front line workers) were issued on 24.03.2020.
These guidelines followed a risk based approach and recommended type of PPE
that needs to be used in high and low risk areas.
The healthcare workers were provided with
hydroxychloroquine for prophylaxis and prevention of infection.
N-95 masks and triple / double ply masks were brought under
price control.
Export of PPEs, N 95 masks, triple/ double ply medical
masks, goggles and visors were banned till such time we were self-reliant.

concern was addressed. States/UTs were provided with 3.05 crore N-95 masks and

(https://igot.gov.in/igot/).
MoHFW website is being daily to provide general public with
information on current status of COVID-19 spread in
More than 30 vaccine candidates have been supported which
are in different stages of development, 3 candidates are in advanced stage of
Phase I/II/III trials and more than 4 are in advanced pre-clinical development
stage. A National Expert Group on Vaccine Administration for COVID-19 has been
constituted on 7th August, 2020, under NITI Ayog. Thirteen clinical trials of
repurposed drugs have been undertaken to build a portfolio of therapeutic
options for Covid-19 patients.
Health is a State subject. The responsibility of engaging
private hospitals in treating COVID cases is that of the State
Government. Union Health Secretary has written to all
States/UTs to engage private hospitals through mutually agreeable arrangements.
Rates under PM-JAY and CGHS packages have been advised. A large number of
States have accordingly issued instructions to that affect.

Strategic Approach to Combat
Covid-19
Posted
On: 15 SEP 2020 2:57PM by PIB
India would be following a scenario based approach for the
following possible scenarios, (i) Travel related case reported in India,
(ii) Local transmission of COVID-19, (iii) Large outbreaks amenable to
containment, (iv) Wide-spread community Transmission of COVID-19 disease and
(v) India becomes endemic for COVID-19.
Currently many areas are experiencing large outbreaks
amenable to containment. Hence a containment strategy is being followed by
Government of India.
Government has succeeded to a great extent in controlling
the aggressive progression of COVID-19 in the country.
Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), Government
of India followed a graded approach for expanding COVID-19 dedicated hospital
infrastructure. Over the past 6 months, dedicated isolation beds capacity has
been expanded 36.3 times and dedicated ICU beds above 24.6 times to what
existed in March 2020. As of now, there are enough bed available to face
any contingency. Further clinical management protocol for COVID-19 was issued
and regularly updated & widely circulated. Mainstay of treatment is
appropriate rehydration, supplemental oxygen therapy, hydroxychloroquine for
mild (but high-risk cases) and for moderate cases and management of symptoms.
MoHFW has ensured adequate availability of oxygen and hydroxychloroquine. The
case fatality rate in
The low case fatality can be attributed to constant
monitoring for fatality mitigation that includes early case detection through
surveillance, monitoring of oxygen saturation, early referral to COVID
treatment facilities and adequate case management.

Cabinet approves establishment of
new All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) at Darbhanga,
Posted
On: 15 SEP 2020 2:25PM by PIB
The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has
approved establishment of a new All India
Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) at Darbhanga,
The total cost will be Rs.1264 crore and is likely to be completed
within a period of 48 months from the date of the approval of Government of
India.
Benefits to the common man/highlights
• New AIIMS will add 100 UG (MBBS) seats
and 60 B.Sc (Nursing) seats.
• New AIIMS will have 15-20 Super
Specialty Departments.
• New AIIMS will add 750 hospital beds.
• As per data of current functional AIIMS, it
is expected that each new AIIMS will cater to around 2000 OPD patients per day
and around 1000 IPD patients per month.
• PG and DM/ M.Ch Super-specialty courses will also be started in
due course.
Details of project:
Establishment of new AIIMS involves
creation of Hospital, Teaching Block for medical & nursing courses,
residential complex and allied facilities/services, broadly on the pattern of
AIIMS,
The proposed institution shall have a hospital with
capacity of 750 beds which will include Emergency / Trauma beds, ICU beds,
AYUSH beds, Private beds and Specialty & Super Specialty beds. In addition,
there will be a
Impact:
Setting up of new AIIMS would not only
transform health education and training but also address the shortfall of
health care professionals in the region. The establishment of new AIIMS will
serve the dual purpose of providing super specialty health care to the
population while also help create a large pool of doctors and other health workers
in this region that can be available for primary and secondary level
institutions / facilities being created under National Health Mission (NHM).
Construction of new AIIMS is fully funded by the Central Government. The
Operations & Maintenance expenses on new AIIMS are also fully borne by the
Central Government.
Employment Generation:
Setting up new AIIMS in the state will
lead to employment generation for nearly 3000 persons in various faculty &
non-faculty posts. Further, indirect employment generation will take place due
to facilities and services like shopping centre, canteens, etc. coming in the
vicinity of the new AIIMS.
The construction activity involved for
creation of the physical infrastructure for the AIIMS Darbhanga is also
expected to generate substantial employment during the construction phase as
well.
This will fill the gaps in tertiary health-care infrastructure as well
as facilities for quality medical education in the State and adjoining
areas. The AIIMS would not only provide the much needed super specialty /
tertiary health care at affordable costs, to the poor and needy, it would also
make available trained medical manpower for the National Rural Health Mission /
other Health Programmes of the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare.
This institute will also create trained pool of teaching resources / faculty
which can impart quality medical education.
