A small survey finds that it is not only hospitals or doctors that postponing the major surgeries but some patients are canceling elective procedures because of the outbreak. Many doctors say they are seeing patients canceling or deferring procedures because of Corona’s fear.

So, to know the reason behind postponing surgeries and not visiting doctors during Corona, Jugaadin News has Dr. Amit Saini at its Talk @Jugaadin News.  Dr. Amit Saini is a leading orthopedician at Sapra Multispeciality Hospital, Hisar. While addressing he says that the cancellation of procedures so far has been minimal, but with spreading viruses more patients are changing their plans to stop the spread of coronavirus.

If I talk about ortho surgeries like knee replacement, hip replacement, carpal tunnel surgeries patients who had scheduled their surgeries are now postponing procedures to avoid exposure to Corona. Patients are likely to see healthcare facilities as high-risk areas for exposure to infectious coronavirus. Though they are taking the right step during quarantine time, but they should follow some precautions so as not to come across any emergency.

Patients who have postponed their surgeries should always be in contact with the concerned doctor through telephonic or Messenger. If they see any emergency or medical condition, they should consult the medical practitioner as early as possible. They must have enough stock of prescribed medications with them. They should take all the precautionary measures against corona. There is no need to panic if surgery gets delayed by 5 to10 days said Dr. Amit saini.

We as Health care providers are delaying elective care to keep beds open and to prevent patients from contracting a new coronavirus, but this does not mean that patients should be cut off from life-saving treatment if needed.

Mr. Praveen Khandelwal, Director Performance Institute (Educating for better tomorrow) gives his viewpoint on the concept of virtual teaching pattern during Coronavirus in an interview with Jugaadin News. Under Performance institute, he also started the live training sessions for students. He explains that at this time of this pandemic, the virtual learning system is the only support system of the education industry. Virtual teaching cannot replace classroom teaching but it has its own importance and credibility. Students can take the benefit of virtual learning and utilize their time during self- quarantine as a virtual teaching method gives the possibility of

1. Removal of geographical barriers (Anywhere learning)
   A virtual classroom knows no geographical boundary. It allows learners and teachers to attend a single live training session from any place in the world, provided they have a computer and Internet connection. And when the students are under quarantine, they will face no problem of connectivity.
2. Sessions can be recorded If we talk about traditional classroom-based training sessions, students don’t get the facility of the recorded sessions if they have missed any. Whereas a virtual classroom has a facility to record the session, learners or teachers can replay it afterwards. Teachers get an opportunity to review their own or their colleague’s performance.
3. Quicker to organize
   Virtual Training can be organized more quickly than traditional classroom-based training as no extra material need to be distributed. The sessions are easier to schedule or reschedule.
4. More comfortable learning environment: Students are able to listen lectures and complete assignments from their comfortable zone and in this quarantine time, they can utilize the time effectively.
5. Convenience and flexibility: Shifting from classroom teaching to online teaching will give an opportunity to plan study time around the rest of their day, instead of the other way around. Course material is always accessible online and they can read it any time.

Because of all of these benefits, virtual learning is becoming popular during coronavirus time and every other institute is moving towards this concept. No doubt this will help students in learning with ease and when they join the school after lockdown, they will not feel that their time has been wasted.

Business is now targeting customers through Digital Marketing techniques and adopting Digital Marketing strategies in this difficult scenario. Assessing the present situation of businesses and companies,  Er, Manmohan Singla, a Digital Marketing Professional when interviewed in Talk @Jugaadin News gave some Digital Marketing techniques through which companies can maintain their visibility in the market during COVID 19 which is an essential component for long term profitability.

He explained the present scenario of companies and it encourages the companies to move towards Digital Marketing. Some of the Digital Marketing techniques that a business should use at the time of corona to be in the mind of consumers can be:

1. If you are not in the visibility of your consumer for some days, it means you are out. So be in touch with your existing customers rather than focusing on gaining new ones. You need to keep in contact with your customers across social media and the web. Plan a good content marketing strategy to give information about various innovations and news to keep the customer updated. Also, be in conversation with your customers through social media channels.

2. During difficult situations, the continuation of work differs across industries. Companies who do business online have been able to turn to tele-networking, although small retailers have been temporarily shut down. How this pandemic is impacting your company or industry as a whole, be sure to share your updates with your customers. This can be done by putting a banner on website, social media platforms and by sending an email.

3. Irrespective of the sector in which you work, some other companies are being hit just as harder than yours during this pandemic. Thus, help such companies to learn about digital marketing and its various promotional tools like Social media marketing, content marketing, and search engine optimization (SEO) as this is the time to stand with each other not against each other.

4. Earlier, businesses may have organized an email marketing campaign to inform about new products or service but during difficult times like these, it’s important to remember that it’s OK to press the pause button on non-urgent ads. Shift your company’s focus more on helping the customers in this pandemic situation.

In hard times like the COVID-19 pandemic, as a responsible citizen, you must organize and consider goals other than business promotion. Er. Manmohan Singla also said that learning Digital Marketing is the need of the hour. This attack of coronavirus has shown that the upcoming time will show a revolution in digital technology and one who will grab the technology as early will grow and sustain in the future. Digital Marketing is a skill that can be used while sitting at home. Anyone who wants to start with, here is the link to Manmohan Singla’s Youtube channel.

 Hisar 27 March: Amidst the situation of the country battling the Corona epidemic, the founder of Mission Green foundation, Swami Sahajanand has given a shocking prediction in an interview to the team of Jugaadin News. He predicted that India might face an economic crisis and emergency in the future due to the Corona pandemic.

 Sahajanand Nath said that he always warned the government and organizations that if this happens then what are their preparations.  He told that in the past too many of his predictions have been proved right that includes Sonia Gandhi will never become Prime Minister in life, India will have an earthquake on 26 January, and many other predictions also. He also predicted from 24 March, the outbreak of Corona in India will take full force and the whole of India will be shut down.  In view of this, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji did a one-day public down on March 22, his statement proved true. This 21-day lockdown can be increased to one or two months so we should all be ready for this.

 Sahajanand Nath said that nature has given you an opportunity to spend time with your loved ones and to adopt the process of sustainable development.  Being the founder of Mission Green Foundation, Swami Sahajanand Nath has been warning the country and the states many times that one day it will come that the whole world will have to go under emergency.  Today India is going through that phase. 

 He said that the present situation tells us how lonely and helpless we are.  We can avoid this situation if we adopt the process of sustainable development because, with every problem, solutions are also there.  That is why if we take measures before something like this happens, then we can avoid trouble.  Sahajanand Ji is startled by saying that we are moving towards an economic emergency, it can be avoided if we take precautions. Sahajanand Nath warned such people who are negligent and ignoring the lockdown. Hence Swami Sahajanand Nath made a humble request to the government to understand the disaster and also requested the people to follow the orders of the government and administration.
