The physician can now virtually visit the stay-at-home patient and heal from a distance Telemedicine in covid-19 times:  When 37-year-old Priyanka was down with fever and dry cough, she decided to consult a doctor over a WhatsApp call before giving her blood sample for an RT-PCR test.

It was like  putting Band-Aid on a bullet wound - an attempt  to deal with a serious problem in an inadequate way  addressing only the symptom and not the root cause.  Namrata Kohli delves deeper and finds that the malaise is systemic  Today the Twin Towers were demolished in Noida and many called them the “symbols of corruption”.
