A report published in The Lancet, an internationally renowned health research journal, has expressed fear that the situation in Bangladesh will become rampant. Citing some Bangladeshi experts, Sophie Cousins, an award-winning Australian writer from South Asia, said in her report that the worst situation in Bangladesh has yet to come.
The Lancet report expressed concern, saying it was raining. Dengue on the other hand. Do not do it again. In such a situation, the coronavirus infection can spread uncontrollably across Bangladesh.
The Lancet report criticized the government for setting fees for the corona test, citing experts from Bangladesh.
According to the report, after fixing the fee, the exam rate has dropped to 0.6 per 1,000 people every day. In August, the tests were conducted at a rate of 0.6 per 1,000 people.
Shamim Talukder, director of the private research firm Eminence, told The Lancet that the epidemic had exposed Bangladesh’s “unethical healthcare system.”
Talukder claimed that the private sector was not initially allowed to test. Now the fee is charged again. The poor are left out.
Talukder visited various cemeteries in Dhaka and spoke with the staff there. The cemetery administrators told him that the death toll in the country was four times the official estimate. Many die with symptoms, but the crown has not been tested.
Mahmudur Rahman, former director of Bangladesh’s IEDCR, also criticized the decision to set fees for tests, saying there was no work for people during the epidemic. Penniless. In such a situation, the government should not accept money.
A Bangladeshi hospital owner was arrested in July for giving a false report to Corona. Which brings the country’s fragile private health sector to the fore. Mahmudur Rahman, former director of IEDCR, said the government should urgently establish surveillance measures to curb fraud and increase public confidence in corona tests.
“Another doctor in Dhaka told The Lancet, on condition of anonymity, that a maximum of 15,000 tests are carried out every day in a country of 165 million people, which is nothing.”
The doctor expressed concern that the epidemic would continue for many more days. I fear that winter will be what it really is. People are also afraid. However, no official from the Bangladesh Ministry of Health agreed to speak.
According to the World Survey, an international polling organization, so far 3 lakh 6,694 people have been infected with corona in Bangladesh. 4,174 people died.
