AGARTALA, Feb 11 (TIWN): Practical experiences of thousands of patient parties in Tripura say, if the patient party is rich or middle class background then any serious patient is suggested by medical staffs to take to a private hospitals. May be reasons are many and sole blame can’t go to the doctors as patients’ pressure are huge in GB and also it lacks enough infrastructure and well behaved staffs. But, that’s the sad reality which shows why if a poor man like Sukhu Gour is admitted in GB (who was killed by blasting a fire cracker on his head), died after few days of discharge but if he was rich, he could survive after treatments in private hospital. The issue is raised, as Tripura CM talked tall about GB hospital and said serious patients including multi-organ failure type patients should come to GB. Fact is multi organ patient can never survive in GB, neither his/her diseases can be identified, however, for VIPs including ruling and opposition politicians or medical officer background staffs family members are treated differently.

So, CM’s idea about GB hospital is still in the “Fools Paradise”.

Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb’s statement about what type of patients should come to GB like big Govt hospitals is too controversial. He said, when a patient is serious or multiple organs are not working, then only s/he come to GB hospital.

First of all, GB’s condition is pathetic and generally with multiple organ failure patients sent to private hospitals. GB Doctors hardly keep such patients. Also any patient of local area goes to the nearest hospital first and then either discharge of referred. Instead of asking for doing proper tests by GB medical staffs, CM said such patients who suffer from vomiting, stomach paining, fever should not come to GB hospital/

Question is, how a patient will understand stomach-ache is serious or normal disease symptom ? CM asked Fever patients not to come in GB, but how to decide by patient whether he has normal fever or coronavirus ?

However, from which logic he said so, it is beyond idea. Also without testing, checking how a patient will understand s/he has a serious disease or not ?

The Chief Minister was badly trolled in social media, public calling him “mad”.
