The Introduction
The world facing the COVID 19 pandemic is rife with speculations about the virus itself. One fact stays constant – precaution is better than cure.
So, we are advised to practice social distancing, frequently wash our hands or use hand sanitiser when needed and keep a safe distance of at least 6 feet from people, if you must go out.
But, is this truly a possibility for the healthcare workers. Is it reasonable to expect the doctors and nurses, the primary care-givers of our healthcare system to stay 7 feet apart while trying to save lives?
The answer is a resounding no. So, how do we attempt to provide better protection for the first line of defense against the Coronavirus?
Initially, it was deemed enough protection for doctors and nurses to wear surgical masks and gloves.
The scenario is far from the norm. Now, the coronavirus can be transmitted through the respiratory droplets of an infected person to a non-infected person when the infected coughs, sneezes or even speaks.
