Corona Panic: A tragic death in medical negligence in Dhaka Medical College

87422319_690276278467054_290117855364513792_n.jpg


DHAKA: A woman died on Saturday afternoon at Dhaka Medical College Hospital. According to doctors, he died of gastrointestinal complications. And the family claims she died of coronavirus panic and neglect of doctors.

Najma Amin, 25, was a graduate student at the University of Regina in Saskatchewan, Canada. He returned to Dhaka on March 7 and complained of abdominal pain.

Family members said Nazma was unable to eat. He had nausea or severe pain in his stomach at every meal. He was taken to a hospital in Mohammadpur near his house on March 7 due to unbearable pain.

Noting that the ICU (Incentive Care Unit) could not find a hospital where the bed was empty, Najma's father Amin Ullah said, "It is said from the hospital that he needs to be taken to the ICU quickly. Then many nights. '

Nazma was later taken to DMC Hospital. When she was admitted to a ward and given saline, oxygen, and medicines, she felt somewhat healthy. Amin Ullah said, "Her pain was also reduced somewhat."

At eight in the morning, the nurses shift. At half past 11, one of the new nurses wants to know what happened to Nazma? Amin Ullah mentioned the problem, saying that his daughter was recently from Canada.

This information is only for najma. Referring to Canada, the nurse starts shouting, 'She's from Canada! He has a fever too! 'They went to the doctor and told him that he was infected with coronavirus.

Then the chaos spread throughout the ward. No one else came to Nazma. All the doctors and nurses left the ward.

The family complained that Nazma had died in the last few hours of negligence by doctors and nurses on suspicion of coronavirus death.

There is no necessary preparation for coronavirus at DMC Hospital. Neither testing equipment nor medical personnel have protective measures. So they refused to go to the patient.

We went to this ward and talked to some of the staff there.

One ward boy said, 'When everyone heard that there were coronavirus patients in the ward, everyone was shocked. I was there too. I felt like the end of my life had come. What if I become infected with this patient and I infect my family members? '

A nurse said, 'Look, everyone has their own fear of life. Nurses have that fear too. '

Professor of Surgery, under the supervision of Nazma. ABM Jamal said, "When the girl came from Canada, the panic spread in the ward." He added that the situation was normalized very soon.

DMC Hospital Director Brigadier General AKM Nasir Uddin said, "The staff has no protective measures. They were concerned that they had to stay in contact with a coronavirus patient for a long time. '

"We have had to ask representatives from the IEDCR to check if they have coronavirus," he added, adding that they have done this on an urgent basis with utmost sincerity.

After examination the Nazma is not coronavirus. However, her physical condition deteriorated due to lack of surveillance for a long time.

About 12:30 pm, a doctor went to Nazma after wearing gloves and a mask. He had a syringe filled with antibiotics. It's too late then. Najma died shortly after the antibiotic was poured into the body.

Dr. ABM Jamal said, "We suspect she had a hole in her heart. That is, her intestines were cracked somewhere. When she was admitted, a lot of fluid was released from her body. '

Wow. So unprofessional. She definitely died of gastrointestinal complication which is completely seperate from coronavirus pathology (respiratory system)
But the doctors need to have their license revoked for such carelessness

@Michael Corleone :

From your medical knowledge, you think BD warm climate might help mitigate coronavirus spread in BD?
Weather alone will definitely not stop it, what people need to do is avoid panicking and going out of house without emergency reasons... just avoiding public places will reduce infection and keep avoidable deaths at a minimum.

Yes but can warm dry weather like BD has now till start of May help stop the spread than if it was cold and dry like in China months ago?

Meanwhile Kangladeshis not giving damn about quarantine, fleeing from hospital and quarantine, hanging out with girlfriend, getting married after coming back from other countries, going on tour to Cox's Bazar, St. Martin etc while govt tried to stop the the spread by closing all educational institutes till 31st March, celebrating Mujib's birthday and watching fireworks in crowded place while hypocrite mullahs asking their stupid followers not to stop going in mosque because they are 100% saccha muslims, Hindus are washing their hands with cow urine.

People suffering from other diseases are dying without medical treatment because hospitals won't take them as they don't have kit to test corona virus while our ministers are saying everything is fine and they have enough preparation while ICDDR is struggling to deal with people coming from outside.

Why has BD not banned mass gatherings yet?

All passengers coming from European countries will be pushed back after arrival here, said Dhaka's Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport Director AHM Touhid-ul Ahsan.

In a press briefing today, he also said, "We will send NOTAM to all airport authorities so that they do not allow someone to come to Bangladesh via any transit."

"Our immigration will check passengers' travel history thoroughly and will send back on same flight if anyone from Europe try to enter the country," the airport director added.

"A US-Bangla Airlines flight carrying some 44 passengers, including 34 Chinese and 10 Bangladeshis, arrived here from China. They had clearance certificates of being coronavirus-free," he added.

The airport director further said, "None of them have been found positive after screening at the airport. Yet we advised them to stay in home quarantine."

Earlier on March 14, the government suspended on arrival visas for all countries and banned flights carrying passengers from all European countries, except the United Kingdom, for two weeks in an effort to stop the spread of coronavirus.

Yes but can warm dry weather like BD has now till start of May help stop the spread than if it was cold and dry like in China months ago?
It is hoped that will help stop the spread but we will have to wait and see... after Italy, now it’s UKs turn... ukraine isn’t reporting true numbers of infected but my city already has 47 and whole city has been shut down, Ukrainian currency tanked after strong performance throughout the year

করোনা ভাইরাসের বিস্তার ঠেকাতে দেশের সব শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠান ৩১ মার্চ পর্যন্ত বন্ধ ঘোষণা করেছে সরকার। আর শিক্ষার্থীদের বাড়ির মধ্যে থাকাটা অভিভাবকদের নিশ্চিত করতে বলা হয়েছে। সব ধরণের জনসমাগম এড়িয়ে চলতে বলা হয়েছে।

কিন্তু পর্যটন স্পটগুলোতে দেখা যাচ্ছে ভিন্ন চিত্র। অভিভাবকরা সন্তানদের নিয়ে ভিড় করছেন সেখানে। দেশের দূর দূরান্ত থেকে আসছে পর্যটকরা। এছাড়া তরুণ পর্যটকদেরও সংখ্যা বাড়ছে।

কক্সবাজার, খাগড়াছড়ি, রাঙামাটি এবং বান্দরবনের পর্যটন স্পটগুলো ঘুরে দেখা গেছে, সেখানে পর্যটকদের ভিড় বাড়ছে। অনেকে দল বেঁধে আসছেন দেশের বিভিন্ন স্থান থেকে।

স্ত্রী ও সন্তাদের নিয়ে কক্সবাজার সৈকতে ঘুরতে আসা এমনই এক পর্যটক বলেন, আমরা এখানে এসেছি আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামীনের উপর বিশ্বাস রেখে, ভাইরাস একটি ক্ষুদ্র জীবাণু, যেটা আমরা দেখতে পাই না। যার বিরুদ্ধে কোন যুদ্ধ করে, অস্ত্র ধরে লাভ নেই।

সৈকতে ঘুরতে আসা আরেক মহিলা বলেন, ঢাকায় আরও বেশি মহামারি আকার ধারণ করেছে। এখানে থাকাটা আমার কাছে বেশি নিরাপদ মনে হচ্ছে। তার পাশে দাঁড়িয়ে থাকা এক পুরুষ জানান, প্রত্যেক পর্যটক যদি সচেতন থাকে তাহলে কোন সমস্যা নেই।

এদিকে সংশ্লিষ্টরা জানান, হোটেল, মোটেলে বুকিং কমলেও, তরুণ পর্যটকদের সংখ্যা কমছে না। স্থানীয়দের সংস্পর্শ বন্ধ করতেও কোন উদ্যোগ নেই। এছাড়া পর্যটন স্পটগুলোতেও নেয়া হয়নি কোন বাড়তি সতর্কতা।

এর আগে পাকিস্তানের করাচিতেও দেখা যায় একই চিত্র।

বিশ্বব্যাপী এই ভাইরাস মহামারি রূপ নিয়েছে। কিন্তু এখনো কোন ভ্যাকসিন বা প্রতিষেধক আবিষ্কার হয়নি। এ অবস্থায় এই মহামারি থেকে রক্ষা পাওয়ার একমাত্র উপায় হল প্রতিরোধ করা। এর জন্য নিজেদের সচেতনতার বিকল্প নেই।
