This time is crucial, decision is yet to come. Together we stand strong. Lets unite for a big cause,for betterment of us and our fellows,their parents and hence betterment of country because as Corona is rising load on country’s public health system is increasing day by day. Lets try to minimize this spread. 1st week of july is crucial for decision of postponement. Please i once again request you all to share and get it signed by as much people as you can. Get ready to maximize spread of Petition to minimize covid spread. 

On Saturday, 20th June, Delhi’s Health Minister Satyendra Jain was administered Plasma Therapy, a day after his condition worsened. He was able to find a blood donor in time.. but not everyone can. Now is the time for the government to understand how taking a simple initiative to maintain a central plasma donor list can save lives.

With 18,256 reported cases throughout India today and no slow down in sight, each day that the government miss creating a database could be many lives lost. This petition is steadily gaining attraction. I would like to thank you and the 1000+ individuals who signed, but we need to continue doing our bit. Please keep sharing the petition on email, WhatsApp, Facebook or Twitter.

Each signature that we get brings us closer to pushing the governments to take actions that can not only save thousands of lives but also reduce psychological burden on critically ill patient’s family.

Once we got the success again we need to build momentum so that government doesn’t get any other chance or excuse to conduct exams as in some states exams are going of different fields. We need to unite and share the Petition again ,lets get on work guys,we can again do it.Sign and share the Petition. 

WE NEED TO AVOID MASS GATHERING AND IN EXAMS ITS TOTALLY UNAVOIDABLE. 

 Dear supporters, 

I hope each and every one of you is safe and healthy in these unprecedented times of the corona pandemic. But in these gloomy times, I have news that would get your hopes up.  I am so delighted to share that the number of signatures on our petition has reached a whopping 1,43,686,  as of today!

This has been possible with the support that I have received from each one of you. And for that, I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to every supporter of our petition. It’s the supporters of the petition from which the petition wields its power. But, the signatures need to go up because more the number of signatures, the closer we are to getting the demands of the petition getting fulfilled. 

This support becomes all the more important as ASHA workers are risking their lives with the increase in caseload and that has led to some of them being tested positive, while on work. Apart from being underpaid and overburdened, they are now being exposed to sufferings of the deadly virus as well. But still, the government has been reluctant in providing any respite to our ASHA workers. 

There has been no official declaration of plans/schemes to increase the incentives for our ASHA workers, yet! And so, I’d request you all to spread the word, bring this into discussion or just share this petition with your family and friends(https://www.change.org/ashakiasha This is the least that we as citizens, who are safe in the comforts of our home can do.  I am positive that the increase in supporters would bring this issue, which is so vital, into the narrative and would compel the government to ensure that timely disbursement of incentives and provisioning of protective gear takes place.

 And with this optimism, I’d like to end this update with a bit of friendly advice. And that is to take care of yourself. Not only of your physical self but your mental self as well. Your mental well-being post lockdown is equally important. Also, reach out to people close to you. Be happy and kind to those around you. And don’t forget to spread happiness. Because happiness like corona is contagious!    

Sending good vibes, 

Afrin Shakeel.

Hello Friends,
Let me start by thanking you all for the tremendous support you have given to our petition demanding setting up of hospitals in various stadiums of Delhi & for requisitioning services of medical staff from Green & Orange Zones to operate these additional facilities.
We already have more than 1,42,000 signatories and this has ensured that the Delhi Government has heeded our voices and declared that stadiums of Delhi will be used to create additional medical facilities for treatment of COVID patients.
However, till now, the Delhi Government has not indicated how they intend to operate these additional facilities.
Arranging additional COVID Beds by itself doesn’t resolve the problem. We also need doctors, nurses and medical attendants to manage the additional beds.
The existing medical staff in Delhi is already overburdened and is finding it difficult even to manage the existing Covid-19 beds. Therefore, it’s important that we bring in doctors and other medical staff from outside Orange/Green Zones to operate these new facilities, otherwise we will be stuck with only beds and no staff which serve no purpose except isolation of patients.
The number of Coronavirus cases and related deaths is increasing everyday and we need to ensure that the Delhi Government acts and takes the essential steps before it’s too late.
Therefore, I request you to SHARE  this petition with your friends, contacts and on your social media accounts so that we can generate more support for this issue and thus, pressurise the government to act immediately and take essential steps to battle this deadly disease.

As of 17 June 2020, we are over 2lakh strong. The voices demanding critical information to battle the pandemic need to get stronger as COVID stats for India show a disturbing surge with each passing day.

“The total number of coronavirus cases in India has doubled to nearly 355,000 since the beginning of this month, when the national lockdown was largely lifted, allowing most businesses to reopen and travel to resume.”

“India has registered an average of more than 11,000 cases per day for the past week. Almost 12,000 people have died of COVID-19 in the country, which is now the fourth worst-affected country in the world, having overtaken the U.K., Spain, and Italy last week.” 

In the State capital, the Govt is converting train cars to serve as hospitals as COVID-19 cases surge. However, the Central Govt is still silent on providing critical information such as:

1. . Nearest COVID hospital based on location
2. . Total Number of beds
3. . Beds reserved for COVID patients
4. . Out the beds reserved, how many are available?
5. . Protocol to be be followed

The situation is getting worse by the day and it is imperative that the govt, while reopening the economy, also disseminated essential information needed to survive these tough times.

For this, I request all of you to tweet the following:

“I am a citizen of India and I demand an All-India Centralised Online Database of Hospitals, Beds and COVID19 protocols for patients .@narendramodi .@PMOIndia .@NITIAayog .@drharshvardhan .@ChangeOrg_India change.org/centralcoviddatabase”

Together we are stronger.

Love and Light

Mishika
