    Had this First Nuero be owned by a minority member, the sky would have been fallen down by now.

    Exactly ! That's why, over a thousand throat swabs are done from past visitors of the hospital yet the root contact is not established.

    It s not bhatkal lady. Its bantwal Mother in law who contracted feom daughter in law, that MIL had asthmatic problem, she was having treatment since march in first neuro. This bhatkal lady went in april n she contracted from first neuro. Siince corna virus stays on metals an dplastics etc for more than 4 to 8 hours it is likely with some medical equipments they all got contracted.

    This hospital should have disenfected every 3 days when the first death was heard, all medical equipments should have been sterilised. Lack of hygiene is added caps on corona feather.

    This virus likes unhygeinic place settles there without any living cells for more than 8 hours. Thats why one should not spit or remove sweat on public space. It has by now 70 mutations, this is what world scientists saying, so only single vaccine is nt enough, we need many pattern vaccine.

    First neuro pls seal ur hospital and undergo complete sterilisation and disenfection. Atleast for 10 days.

    The root cause for this spread from First Neuro to be found and action to be taken against the hospital to be taken. Cost for treatment for all these patients to be recovered from the hospital if found guilty. Please don't be lenient and be fair in investigation.

    Please don't blame hospital. No hospital would do such a big mistake anytime. When every one can see the effect of spreading the virus why the hospital admin will hide the fact?? Why would they risk their own lives? Why would they take risk to spoil their own hospital reputation? It was totally unknown to the hospital. Never blame untill get the root of the virus to the hospital

    Hospital is already shut and surrounding areas made sensitive zone. All patients discharged. Kulshekar patient is one such case. The root person must be asymptotic hence he/she is spreading it without knowing about it.

    Abdul Rafiq...Here after it wont come under control government itself inject some quantity of positive virus in each and every human-being. It's called Herd Theory. First take some quantity of positive virus who as affected so called plasma theory and make it dilute so can he fight easily thru his immune system. If every one injected some quantity of positive virus all human body's start to fight virus. God provided us a component so called Rogha Nirodhak Shakti. It's the last stage...to kill the virus completely.

    It's the fear, not spreading it deliberately. Each and every person who visited the hospital must be praying 'Oh God, let it be NOT me'

    There should be a awareness movement to let people know that being COVID +ve is not a shame. Let us be open about it. Only then people will shed the disgrace associated with it. Else they will continue to be secretive about it and more cases will keep coming

    Mr thousif depends on how you take it, but one thing is for sure your jamaat issue has created a lot of cases.Agree facts. Don't try telling us that because of your jamaat thing 0 cases are going on. Main reason for this virus getting out of hand in North is your jamaat and in mangalore this first neuro hospital

    Travel history of that woman and family since January has been traced and got test results too. There has been no source of virus on their side.
    So now need to trace all patients who visited First Neuro since February and trace their and family's travel history.
    It's gonna be a long process tho.

    Jovita you are right. Bantwal lady got it(daughter in law). she used to visit first neuro to see her m-i-law. so mother in law got it. the helper lady from panemangalore (hospital staff) got from second lady and she gave to shakthinagar lady and boloor lady who were in hospital. since she was cleaning their rooms. rest all cases continued.... so we cant blame any one straight away. only the department has to find out the real cause.

    @Jacintha: 'Used to visit' and 'Visited' has big difference.
    DIL visited Hospital only on April 3 ( only one day )
    She didn't even touch MIL as she was being shifted from ICU to ward and there were tubes, drips around her bed.
    Followed all procedures like applying sanitizer, wearing mask, maintaining distance.
    So how did virus transmit there, wirelessly?
    Also, MIL's caretaker was with her for 35 days ( direct contact daily )
    How did he not get the virus?
    Don't say immunity immunity for everything, that's lame excuse now.
    All type of aged people has got infected.
