Health Minister Zahid Malek said: ‘The coronavirus vaccine will arrive in Bangladesh in late January or early February. All arrangements for vaccination have been completed. Now it is up to us to prepare and approve the vaccine.

He said this on the occasion of the 26th anniversary of the founding of Swadhinata Chikitsak Parishad (Swachip) on Thursday (December 24). The Health Minister said that the guidance of the prime minister, doctors and health workers have contributed to the example that Bangladesh has set to the world in controlling the crown. Thanks to them, Corona has managed to provide medical care, we have also been able to control it. He is a shining example to the world.

“You look at the United States, you look at Europe, you look at India,” he said. 3 lakh people have died in the United States. About 2.5 lakh people have died in India. Bangladesh is much better than that. We are all working together to improve it. Our telemedicine has worked very well. Doctors have provided many services in this telemedicine all the time. Eighty percent of patients have received services from home.

“We started working with a single laboratory,” he said. But today that has changed. Today you know that it is being tested in 110 labs. Each hospital has separate beds. Our doctors provide two types of treatment in the same hospital. As you know, no one is afraid to treat a heart or a cancer patient, no problem. But separate steps must be taken to treat the crown. My mother was hospitalized for a month but I couldn’t go. My sister was in the hospital for 20 days but we couldn’t go.

The minister said the test was not just a PCR test but an antigen test. Not only this, we have also increased the workforce. I have hired 2,000 doctors and 4,000 nurses in 15 days to take on the labor for a year.

Regarding incentives for doctors, the Minister of Health said: “We are doing everything necessary for this.” This matter is in the Ministry of Finance. I’m sure everyone will get incentives. The Prime Minister will be informed personally to consider the issue of those undergoing treatment in private hospitals. During our tenure, we have recruited 14,000 physicians. What has not happened so far. Thousands of doctors have been promoted.

Referring to the world crown, the health minister said that the country’s economy is doing well today, as the doctors have done a good job. Economy Plus has your contribution, the contribution of doctors. No one in the country has been fired. The store is working. And in a country where Corona is out of control, everything is closed. Everything has closed, all of Europe has closed. Bangladesh is advancing at a dizzying pace under the leadership of Sheikh Hasina. It wouldn’t have happened if Corona wasn’t in control.

With the second wave of crown, said Zahid Malek, Europe has started in America. We want to control. Already arranged at the airport. Activities continue now.

The Swachip event was attended by doctors from the Bangladesh Medical Association, leaders from the Awami League Public Health Subcommittee and doctors from different levels.
