One thing that people like to bring up the most since lockdown commenced and subsequently ended is the statistic of deaths caused by traffic in India. It is indeed a humongous number but incomparable to deaths caused by the Coronavirus as Corona casualties are only going to exponent further. However, it is interesting to note that just like the Coronavirus, we have no cure for traffic deaths except of course common sense, proper precautions, and a little bit of luck. So it is exactly like fighting against the Coronavirus! (a joke, of course) But coming back to the point, the number of deaths caused by traffic is staggering and the reasons behind it may be of varied nature. So in today’s Ziqitza Healthcare ltd blog, we’re going to dive deeper into the statistics of traffic deaths and what may be the reasons behind them. The Actual Statistic There were 4.6 lakh cases of reported road accidents in India in the year 2018, nearly a quarter of which involved the death of at least one

The Coronavirus vaccine is the word that has been on the mind of every individual across the planet as total infections are rising to 30 million and total deaths towards one million. As indicated by past research and history, scientists have predicted a safe vaccine will release in November of the year 2034. But the past doesn’t necessarily dictate the future. Technological advances and much more awareness in the general public may result in a safe and working vaccine being delivered much, much earlier. There are many candidates for the Coronavirus vaccine that are springing up from around the globe and an Indian vaccine is one of the top contenders.   The reason why there is a humungous pressure on Indian researchers to develop a vaccine is that the daily infection cases are rising. Recently, India recorded the highest number of cases in a day (90 thousand) amongst all countries and the death toll is rising tremendously. Hospitals were already overworked and are even more so in

 In a country like India where the public transportation serves 7 crore people and road trips that records to 1645 crore km total distance annually, it would be safe to say that the livelihoods of many, many people are affected due to the shutting down of the services in the pandemic. Many questions remain to be answered but here are a few answered by this Ziqitza Healthcare ltd blog. Why do we even need to open up public transportation? Unlike companies and schools that can at least moderately operate on an online level, public transportation is a major need for the lower strata of Indian society, involved not only in transportation for their work but also being employed by the public transportation services.   Since a safe vaccine is not within our near reach and with the country being opened up to avoid total economic collapse, there is a desperate need to open up public transport but only with more than adequate safety measures. What is the plan to open up public transport?

  Emergency services and quick ambulance response time are some of the factors that greatly portray the amount of attention a country pays towards the general safety of its citizens. A properly functioning helpline, friendly and helpful operators, and top-notch ambulances are the reasons why a citizen of a country feels safe out on the streets if a tragedy might strike him/her. But mere words are not enough to describe the effort that comes in building and operating such services, that too for a country with hundreds of millions of people.   Emergency services are hard to master, especially in countries like India where not only are there vast ethnic, cultural, social, and structural differences amongst the population, but there is also the challenge of poverty and hunger that come bundled with lack of facilities. Operating a national helpline for the people of India funnily enough has only one thing in common that applies to every state, the number that people dial to get emergen

PPE or personal protective equipment has become a household term across all borders. Wearing a mask is essential and gloves are an adequate bonus. There can be different types of masks that a person can wear. It could be an N-95 onetime use mask or a 3-layered reusable mask or just a regular surgical mask. But as we all know, India is a country that has the most amount of variation in income across the population. Not everyone can afford use-and-throw masks every day and some can’t even afford a mask! So in this Ziqitza blog post, we’ve compiled a list of all the choices for personal protective equipment that anyone can pick from according to their needs and surroundings.   The Surgical Mask Surgical masks are simple, effective, and inexpensive. They were the standard for PPEs when the pandemic started and are still in use by the general public. ‌Although Ziqitza‌ ‌Healthcare‌ ‌ltd would advise against that as use and throw masks are polluting the environment, we just banned

 A long, misty nature’s walk on a monsoon morning is everyone’s perfect recipe for their morning workout session. But with the onslaught of the pandemic and the world record-breaking spike of the Coronavirus cases in India (80 thousand in one day), it is ironically no longer healthier or safer for people to exercise outside their homes. Gyms have been shut down for public health safety reasons and in some states like Uttar Pradesh; there is still the enforcement of a lockdown on weekends. People, after some strong efforts, have been able to find mental normalcy by oiling their minds with practices like reading and writing, but many are still struggling on how to keep their body fit during the quarantine. Well, Ziqitza Healthcare ltd has come up with some healthy practices tips to oil up the machinery that is the human body in healthy but more importantly safer ways in the pandemic caused by the Corona Virus. Home Gyms People who are in extremely good physical shape and visit th

Ironically enough, the scariest place a person can think of visiting during a pandemic is a hospital. And in a sense, the fear is justified. Hospitals are the hotspots for corona patients because well, they’re being treated there. So it’s fine for a healthy person to fear going to a hospital. But completely avoiding medical attention when it’s needed is foolish.   So we here at Ziqitza Healthcare ltd have come up with methods for the common public to practice and protect themselves (and others) whenever they visit a medical space/ hospital:   Always Follow Social Distancing - The hospital is a public space in regular life and even more so during a pandemic. You should always follow the government prescribed social distancing rules of maintaining a 6 feet gap and wearing a mask as if your life depends on it because it actually does. Doctors and medical staff are putting their lives on the line and working in horrific conditions to pull us out of this ni

  Doctors, nurses, and medical staff have been at the frontline of the battle against the Corona Virus. They have been at it relentlessly since the pandemic started and even now after 6 months are giving their all to get in control of this situation. All the blessings, prayers, and praise they receive from the general public can never make up for their contribution. But besides hospital and emergency medical workers, there are other sectors too whose contribution to taming the pandemic hasn’t seen too much of light. So, in this Ziqitza blog post, we’re going to honour those who have been fulfilling our needs silently during the biggest pandemic this world has ever seen.   Police The Police have been patrolling almost every street in India since the lockdown commenced. They are out there risking their lives, maintaining lockdown rules, and ensuring there is still law and order. The Police should be highly honored for their tenacity and bravery. It is because of the police that In
