Time for another 🧵 on current state of #COVID19 in Greater #Cincinnati. Short summary of all - #CovidIsNotOver and the data point to presence of #DeltaVariant in our midst. Every indicator going in wrong direction. What can you do? #MaskUp #GetVaccinated. Ok here we go ...

Incidence (new cases per population per time) and R (measure of transmission) are both in problematic territory. Below see Hamilton Cty and 14 Cty region. Incidence highest since May, R remains >1 indicative of exponential spread. Increases all across region.

We also illustrate incidence by county according to @CDCgov thresholds. This measure multiples the daily incidence by 7 for a weekly incidence. See counties in region below. All now at least in yellow zone - where universal indoor masking is recommended. #MaskMandate

Bar & Bench

@barandbench

Aurangabad Bench of #BombayHighCourt is hearing suo motu public interest litigation on COVID issues in Marathwada region.

Bench of Justices RV Ghuge and BU Debadwar is hearing Centre’s response on the issue of #ventilators

#COVID19

Bench notes from an affidavit submitted by the Centre that the ventilators issue has been sorted.

Court: We do not want to order that use these ventilators. We leave it upon the doctors and the medical staff to take that call on using the ventilators.

#BombayHighCourt

Court: We have been told through this affidavit that the ventilators are safe to be used on patients. With proper back-up if they can be used then..
Back-up in the sense, if there is some fault, then the patient does not suffer.

औरंगाबाद वैद्यकीय महाविद्यालय आणि रुग्णालयाच्या खुलाशात अनेक बाबी गायब. खुलाशात सरकारी व्हेंटिलेटर खासगी रुग्णालयात लावल्याची बाब का दडवण्यात आलीय?

खासगी रुग्णालयात सरकारी व्हेंटिलेटर कुणाच्या आदेशाने लावले? यावर खुलाशात मौन का? विभागाचे मंत्री पण का गप्प?

#Ventilators
When first wave of corona arrived we were short of masks, PPE kits, ventilators.
Majority of supply was thro China. We achieved self sufficiency in PPE kit which was not a complex item.
With corona spreading across the globe even import of ventilators was difficult

https://twitter.com/a_sandhan/status/1393579778775543811

Despite medical a state subject, Centre took initiative n shortlisted some companies which could manufacture ventilators.
4 co were given orders to manufacture some 50K ventilators n supply it to states.

Procurement was funded thro PM-Care.
PM-Care is voluntarily contribution of individuals n corporates for fighting covid.
Some state CM's applied their citizens to donate to CM relief fund, but negligible response.

१९ एप्रिल २०२१ रोजी औरंगाबाद वैद्यकीय महाविद्यालयाला १०० व्हेंटिलेटर पुरवले गेले.
यापैकी, २३ व्हेंटिलेटर सरकारी रुग्णालयातून खासगी रुग्णालयात वळवले गेले.

औरंगाबाद वैद्यकीय महाविद्यालयाच्या रुग्णालयात वापरात असलेले २० व्हेंटिलेटर गुपचूप एमजीएम रुग्णालयात लावले गेले.

एमजीएम रुग्णालयात व्हेंटिलेटर लावताना उत्पादक कंपनीला कसलीही कल्पना दिली गेली नाही.

IMPORTANT THREAD on #COVIDTreatments - What Works & What Does not. Will be an ongoing threat.

Start with Dr Zarir Udwadia of Mumbai.

Link to Dr Udwadia's Video

1st Point: 90000+ Medical papers on Covid. UNFORTUNATELY, big divergence in Observational Studies impact and Real World impact of a rigorous RCT

RCT is Randomized controlled trial.
A Good website is Covid19Primer.com

2) What Works ?
(A) Steroids are essential. #DEXAMETHASONE 6mg/day for Critically ill Covid Patients. Reduces Death by 33/20% for Patients on Ventilators & Oxygen.

In light of the ongoing #COVID19 crisis in India, Watch the State @project_polis is putting out a thread of reported instances of #StateViolence in relation to the #COVIDSecondWave.

Thread:

India is running out of oxygen, #Covid19 patients are dying–because the govt wasted time: It took 8 months to invite bids for over 150 #oxygen generation plants. 6 months later, most still aren’t up & running. @psychia90 & @VijaytaL report for @scroll_in.
scroll.in/article/992537…

Bharuch General Hospital is the largest govt-run COVID-19 center in #Gujarat’s Bharuch district. On 16 April, there was only 1 doctor & 5 nurses. The hospital had 72 patients almost all of whom had severe #COVID19 symptoms. @chahat_rana1 @thecaravanindia

@LogicalIndians

While India is witnessing a surge in COVID-19 cases, the Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO) has set up a facility in New Delhi with all basic requirements, free of charge.

The COVID facility with all oxygen beds, a large number of ventilators and air-conditioning is set up by DRDO complying with the World Health Organisation (WHO) standards.

If a patient suffers a neuro or cardiac case then the patient will be referred to the All India Institute Of Medical Sciences (AIIMS).

With the .@NIAIDNews #ACCT1 trial final report published on 05 Nov 2020 and the .@WHO's #SolidarityTrial Preliminary report published on 02 December 2020, thought it would be good to take another look at both trials and find ways forward for the patients we are dealing with today

Motivated by a patient I am dealing with who will survive very severe #COVID19 in the setting of transplant, but her father, who was hospitalized earlier than her with moderate COVID, was left to progress and died before her discharge, given #remdesivir only after going on #BiPAP

Here is the link to the prior analysis and I think the new publications give some interesting details which will follow

Trump is now calling his lies about #COVID19 "leadership."

And again, he's saying his lies were to prevent panic.

Trump is saying China "released" #COVID19.

It's a infectious disease.

India became a challenge for expansionist forces & an inspiration for the world in the war for independence. India came together for freedom. In these times too India has taken a pledge for #AtmaNirbharBharat. Mantra for 130 crore Indians: @PMOIndia at #RedFort. Self Reliance.

India & Indians have the capabilities for #AtmaNirbharBharat.

Posting some reflections on the #ACTT & #RECOVERY trials related to #remdesivir & #dexamethasone for the treatment of #COVID19

Those results feel like definitive advances, but we need to realize their limitations and need for confirmation despite everyone's #pandemic fatigue

1/

There are lot of skeptics in and outside of #Twitter on the results of both trials, strong emotions regarding big-pharma made medications, the way the #EUA was made, also about use of #steroids in the #ICU that has a quite rocky history among those who run those units.

And we need to acknowledge from the outset all sorts of basic, and not so basic, emotions that come in the doing clinical trials, exacerbated by academic cliques, national defense issues (and nationalisms) that can get exacerbated with the strains in health systems.

Dear Pandemic

@DearPandemic

1/ Q: A few weeks ago, everyone was talking about the "peak" of the #pandemic. Now, not so much. Places are reopening and it feels like everything is going back to normal. Does this mean we're past the peak?

2/
A: A lot of modelers stopped talking about the "peak" as our thinking about longer-term outbreak control matured. It also became clearer that, at least in some places, we are not able to zip up #SocialDistancing enough to make it work well--or it was ending too early.

3/ Case counts are likely to increase as places begin to reopen. This might feel like a scene from the classic Bill Murray film Groundhog Day: another shutdown, new social distancing orders, and everyone talking about #ventilators again.

#Covid19SA #Ventilators Arms manufacturer, Denel, says simulation exercises to test the efficacy of two locally manufactured ventilator prototypes will start soon. KB

#Covid19SA #Ventilators Project Sabela, an initiative launched by Denel, in collaboration with other SOE’s, research bodies and specialist companies in the private sector, was rolled out last month to address anticipated shortages of ventilators to treat COVID-19 patients. KB

#COVID19SA #Ventilators Danie du Toit, Denel CEO, says the aim of the Denel Dynamics project is to design, develop and manufacture a low-cost, fit-for-purpose ventilator by utilising the skills and expertise of South African engineers, scientists, researchers, and technicians. KB
