[Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו @netanyahu]

My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.

Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.

He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.

I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.

He is a true hero.

Giardia & Cryptosporidium—parasites that can cause diarrhea—are NOT easily killed by chemicals, like iodine or chlorine. Before drinking stream or lake water, boil it or use a filter certified for “cyst” & “oocyst” reduction to remove these parasites:

[𝕲𝖚𝖗𝖚 𝕭𝖗𝖚𝖓𝖔 🇮🇳 @spinesurgeon]

99.99 % of Our People who criticize Doctors want
1. All diseases cured in one day
2. by the treatment of their choice (if they want surgery, we have to operate : If they don't want surgery, we have to resect meningioma with tablets) [Meningioma : A Tumour inside Skull]
3. Free of Cost
4. In the Hospital of their choice (Treatment of Myalgia in neurosurgery OP, Cardiac Bye Pass in Banavaram PHC) [Myalgia : Muscle Pain, usually due to work]
5. At the time they like (They will want admission of OA Knee at 11 PM) [OA Knee : Knee pain]

-oOo-

99.99 % of Our People who criticize Doctors want
6. All diseases to be diagnosed at once
7. With the modality of their choice. If they want MRI Brain, we have to take it even when patient is fully conscious following fall from bicycle. If they don't want, we shouldn't get CT Brain done even if there is anisocoria
8. And doctors say what they like. You should always say that the disease does not need hospitalization if they are not ready for hospitalization. You should always not suggest surgery if they are not ready for surgery.

-oOo-

If any one of these conditions are not met , they will say that
1. Doctors are Negligent
2. Doctors are money minded
3. Doctors are not duty conscious
4. Doctors do not have accountability
5. Doctors did not tell me anything
6. Doctors did not explain treatment plan
eg :
If they want the diease to be cured in one day, but it takes 5 days, and even though the doctor has explained everything, they will still say that doctor did not explain me treatment plan / doctor did not tell me anything
eg
When they are told that Open Heart Surgery cannot be done at Banavaram PHC, they will say that Doctors are money minded (they do open heart surgery in their private clinic but not in PHC), Doctors are not duty conscious, Doctors do not have accountability

-oOo-

The issues are two fold
1. Lack of resources
2. Over expectation of people
The second is the main issue nowadays . . and when the people are at fault, they have to be blamed

-oOo-

99.99 % of Our Public distrust is because of their wrong, illogical, impractical expectation
The mistake has to be identified and solved
They need to be educated about reality

-oOo-

You please ask 1000 non medical people to list what they consider as 10 problems in health care
You will have a list of 10000 problems
9999 will come under the eight categories mentioned above

-oOo-

Health care is not consumerism
The Customer is King approach does not work here
Health care is NOT Patient vs Doctor issue
It is doctor + patient on one side and Disease on other side

Patients do have a lot of role to play in evolving a good health care system and if the system is in disarray they do have lot of blame to shoulder

-oOo-

Bringing health care under consumer courts is the single most anti people act in the history of health care

In 1997, a 66 yr old retired engineer was given the MISSION to build DELHI METRO in 10 years

Everyone thought he'd FAIL as he was too old for the job.

He SHOCKED them by creating the most ADVANCED Metro system in the world, in just 7 years!

@PuneCityPolice @CPPuneCity @CMOMaharashtra @AnilDeshmukhNCP @collectorpune1 @mohol_murlidhar @InfoDivPune @Info_Pune @DGPMaharashtra @PIBMumbai @PCcityPolice I'm a doctor working in KEM Hospital, Mumbai and want to visit my parents in Pune. Need to see my Mom whose knee got twisted some days ago. How do I go about this? If I'm a doc, will I still need an e pass? The website says emergency service providers dont need travel pass.....
