We need a coronavirus protocol
I wish to draw attention to the fact that hospitals, clinics and doctors' chambers in Bangladesh do not seem to be maintaining any sort of protocol for handling patients upon their arrival prior to diagnosis. Starting from security guards to wheelchair assistants, everybody seems to come into direct contact with the patients who may be infected. And if a patient is indeed infected, health personnel will be the first victims due to their exposure.
Thus, we need a general health protocol prescribed by the Health Ministry for the handling of patients at every level. During a pandemic, everyone at homes, hotels, airports, stations, etc., should adhere to a protocol. Without such measures, it could jeopardise our fight against CoViD-19.
