00:00Looking at the amount of patient here, it is a complete threat to all the doctors and staffs of the hospital including the patients.

00:30Looking at the amount of patient here, it is a complete threat to all the doctors and staffs of the hospital including the patients.
00:37So that is why I am forwarding this video to you ma'am.

02:00I speak from the COVID ICU in HBS hospital.
02:13It has been a virtual blood bath.
02:16I came this morning at 7.30 and it is like 12 o'clock in the midnight right now.
02:23Patients are continuously calling me because their fathers are breathless, their daughters are breathless, their brothers are breathless and they cannot find a room in Bangalore.
02:34And at this time, you see me, there is one Mr. Shiva here, there is me and there is no other doctor willing to come and work in this hospital at this point of time.
02:47I have beds, I have oxygen beds, I have ventilators, I have everything.
02:52Look at all the equipment that we have.
02:54I have another 30 beds like this.
02:57But I don't have doctors working here.
03:01I find them all on WhatsApp.
03:03I need six hours of your time a day.
03:06Please, this is my fervent request.
03:09This is the time to show that we care.
03:11Sometimes the army is in the front line.
03:14Sometimes the fire people are in the front line.
03:17Sometimes the police is in the front line.
03:19Right now, you and I, my fellow doctors are in the front line.
03:24Let us show that we care for humanity here.
03:27This is somebody's mother, this is somebody's brother and this is somebody's dad.
03:33Are we going to help at this time?
03:35Are we going to stand up?
03:37Let us show that we care.
03:39It does not matter how long we live.
03:41What matters is how we live.
03:43Let us be afraid of Allah of our Creator and work for this moment.
03:50As true believers, let us work.
03:54Thank you very much.
