Another Young Doctor Lost While on Duty. 💔
A junior Orthopedic Resident Doctor at GSVM Medical College, Kanpur reportedly suffered a sudden cardiac arrest during duty and passed away despite all resuscitative efforts by colleagues.
My heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family, friends, and colleagues. May the departed soul rest in peace.
The toxic culture of 36-hour continuous shifts, missed meals, sleep deprivation, and relentless workload is costing doctors their lives.
Doctors are trained to healnot to endure inhuman working conditions.
It's time to prioritize doctors' health, ensure humane working conditions, and address burnout before more lives are lost. 🕊️💔

62% of Indian resident doctors work more than 36 hours at a stretch. 86% report severe sleep deprivation. 97% earn less than an entry level civil servant. 76% are assaulted while on duty.
We can call ourselves civilised only when we learn to treat our doctors like they treat us.
If this policy is ever implemented, it will be one of the most dangerous experiments in healthcare.
You’re telling hospitals: “If the patient dies, you don’t get paid.”
If a lawyer loses a case, do you refuse to pay the lawyer?
If a firefighter can’t save every house, do you stop paying the fire department?
Congratulations. You just created a financial incentive to avoid the sickest patients.
Trauma. Septic shock. Massive heart attacks. Terminal cancer. Every high-risk emergency becomes a liability.
Hospitals will stop admitting patients needing emergency care and who is going to suffer the most: THE COMMON PEOPLE OF THE STATE.
Hospitals don’t guarantee life. They fight for it.
Don’t punish doctors and hospitals for death. Fix insurance. Strengthen public healthcare. Stop making disastrous policies that sound compassionate but can cost even more lives.

If a corporator thinks it’s okay to beat up a doctor, then the next time there’s a pothole in a road in his area, is it okay to beat him?
