Be patient with your Doctor
Those who have ever visited any Government hospital even during non-corona times know, the messed up doctor to patient ratio in hospitals. Imagine how difficult it would be if the number of patients increases manifold with the resources remaining the same. Being a doctor has become very difficult and dangerous in today's time. Imagine spending a decade of your life, studying hard, spending the days of your youth learning only to see people behaving with you like trash? Can they not expect some decency at least, if not respect? There have been instances of people pelting stones and assaulting doctors. Even in these difficult times of corona people have been misbehaving with the doctors. The people who behave in this manner deserve no treatment by doctors and strictest of punishment. Is this not enough that the doctors are already facing so many difficulties, that the patients are adding to it? By being violent when a patient dies or when they get a heavy sum as a bill? Why is it that a population of patients always acting as if the doctors owe them something? Why does every politician speak ill of doctors, healthcare systems, and feel great about it? and when the number of corona patients reduces in a certain city or area, the credit is given to politicians and IAS officers but not those doctors who worked day and night for the patient? 99 doctors have passed away due to Corona in Maharashtra alone and more than 500 have been infected. These doctors who passed away should not be treated just as a number or statistic. Each one of them had their own personality, they meant something to someone, they too had their own dreams and ambitions. Most of them were young and bright and had a brilliant future ahead and could have saved many more lives.

Why did they choose this field if they can't tackle all this? is a ridiculous question many people ask. Every person has ambition, and it was theirs. During these times it is necessary to treat our doctors with empathy or else there will come a time we will have no one to treat us. A 26-year-old doctor, Dr.Anurag Kumar from AIIMS committed suicide the same month as Sushant Singh Rajput's sad demise. The media is thumping its chest over Sushant's demise while common people do not even know about the doctor. The issues behind a doctor's suicide needed to be addressed at the most urgent. to prevent any such incidences in the future. Due to all these reasons, most doctors nowadays prefer to settle overseas due to better facilities instead of serving their own country.
