According to the IMA report, the highest number of doctors’ deaths due to COVID-19, which is 111 has been recorded in Bihar, followed by Delhi with 109 deaths.

In regard to this, the IMA wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, highlighting the scenario. In the letter they said due to the rapidly rising cases of COVID-19, there is pressure on the doctors in handling the huge number of cases in which they are in constant touch with the COVID-19 patients. As a result the doctors are also contracting the dangerous virus.

Through the written letter, the IMA appealed to the Prime Minister to take action against those who are spreading false information against medical science and to stop violence against doctors.

The Association also requested the Prime Minister to convey the message to the public that vaccination is the effective way to stop the spread of the Wuhan virus.
