Dedicated To Doctors Who Are Fighting Corona

Inspiration : Our eminent poet, Krish Radhakrishnan who is also a doctor handling corona patients. Once he commented that I feel guilty when they give me leave. Another time he commented that some days we are so exhausted that we have no heart to do anything. If everyone followed rules corona cannot spread. This would give health workers much needed respite. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you go out without worry Without precaution, not wearing a mask... think of the doctors out there working hard and day and night trying to save every life It is not easy for them! Frightened faces all around so many deaths in front of them just think of their state of mind Covered by PPE, sweating inside mask on face, not easy to breathe full day handling patients with patience life is most tough for them Still they are doing it for us! we are duty bound to take precautions Please think about them before you go out Or do any social function Just because they are good we should not take advantage suppose they become irresponsible say we are tired we are going on leave Just imagine your plight A big salute to their sincerity and dedication working under extreme conditions still they smile to their patients talk with hope and faith this has been going on for months still they continue to serve Being a doctor is not easy Wear PPE for 1 hour and see Wear mask at home for 1 hour and see Serve a corona patient without thinking of self and family They are doing so much how are we ever going to repay them? By doing our best to avoid getting corona we can help big way If all take care, how will corona spread? Doctors are God to me Being a doctor is not easy

Rama you are absolutely right! PPE was our only protection against this deadly virus and many of us were high risk to contract the disease. we lost doctors and nurses in their early 30s and 40s and it was heart breaking! You have penned a powerful poem in such simple words, and as a man on the ground this appeals to me most! A favourite!! Thanks for the tribute you have paid all the health workers in the world!!
