Lisa Ray Instagram – Posted @withregram • @indiaculturalhub “ Why go to a gym when you have PPE’s?”

I’m 26 years old and I’m currently working at King Edward Memorial Hospital, Mumbai

Once we wear our PPE, we do not remove it for the entire shift – be it food, water or going to relieve ourselves. As such, we stop drinking water an hour before our shift, which does not help with the dehydration for when we perspire (courtesy Mumbai’s humidity) owing to the ACs being shut as we need to provide ventilation with the windows. This leaves us dizzy and feeling faint. Wearing a mask with a proper seal makes breathing difficult – adding to our light-headedness. When our shift is over, the first thing that we do is run for the water bottle and drink like a camel. Oh, what a sweet luxury that is!

The past two weeks have been to say the least -Scary! it is disheartening to see how terrible things are! Our wards are overflowing.It has been a tough time for everybody. I’m currently under a lot of stress with my final MD exams also coming up, so once I’m done with duty, I come back home, sleep and then spend the rest of my time studying for my exams.  The stress is so much that these days I don’t get sleep, despite being how tired I am, unless I take sleeping pills.

My very first Covid duty last year is etched in my memory as rock-bottom. From 2 in the night to 8 in the morning, we lost 15 patients who had come in too late. One of these patients was a 37-year old male; it was devastating to see the loss of a life gone too soon. It was truly the most eye-opening experience of this pandemic for me – realizing the gravity of the situation and the battle that lay ahead.

My family is foremost in my mind as I step out to work everyday. My partner has been my unwavering rock – we both had contracted Covid last year through the course of my duty, and the risk of contracting it again through this is high – but she has never once complained. 

We WILL get through this. We WILL come out on the other side. We’ve got your back :)” @doctor.agni
Lisa Ray Instagram – This is so important Gul. Information is power. Every time you enter a hospital in Canada at the moment, you are required to switch your cloth mask for a surgical one. Now I know why. Cases are raging everywhere, we all have to be vigilant and well informed 🙏🏼 Posted @withregram • @gulpanag Which mask?

While watching with helplessness as our healthcare infrastructure collapses, my mind kept going back to the fact that masks were supposed to keep us safe. Those that wear them. Properly. With BOTH nose and mouth covered.

I know of people who NEVER take off their mask, and yet have ended up getting Covid.
How? Why ?

Then I did some reading on masks.  Well, all masks, it turns out, are not created equal. Turns out surgical masks are better.

Now, I must admit, I have quite a collection of nice, pretty cloth masks, acquired over the last year. But I have switched to surgical masks ( right ) now.

Here’s why .

Nice looking cloth masks are great for general hygiene, dust, prevention of allergies, etc . But experts say it’s safer to use a surgical mask right now.

 A proper surgical mask has 3 layers, an outer hydrophobic non woven layer, a middle melt-blown layer, and an inner soft absorbent non woven layer. 

Now, these three layers have specific functions: the outer layer repels water, blood and body fluids ( ie liquids- there’s a reason surgeons use them when puncturing/cutting), the middle layer,  which is most important and the critical highlight of a surgical mask, it is designed as a filter and prevents germs from entering or exiting the mask; and the inner layer is to absorb water, sweat and spit. 

P.S. A pilot friend with Air India , first told me, a few months ago, about how one can’t enter the airport in Germany without a surgical mask.  And I was a little perplexed. I guess QED.

P. P.S. A lot of folks are also wearing double masks. With one of them being a surgical mask. The more the merrier. What say ?
There’s this video on @ndtv which in-fact suggests this as they eat forward. Double mask  that is.

Your thoughts ?
