  • 新冠疫情在印度:”就好像都是麻风病人”

    印度首都新德里众多的新冠病毒检测站前,人们排起长队。该市政府称,感染人数骤升后,当局扩大了检测能力两倍。在很多地方设置了俗称的”免下车”(Drive-Thru)检测站,在原先的集装箱里,全副”武装”的医护人员们用棉签搜集车内人员唾液。检测结果当事人以后可在线查看。

    市长克里瓦尔(Arvind Kejrival)初步总结说,”这些天,我们每天检测数量达2万,它意味着,我们把数量翻了三番。这一来,结果呈阳性的数字自然也提高了。目前,新德里约有7.4万新冠病毒感染病例。”他表示,这个数字很高,但当局控制了局势,人们不必忧虑。

    列车车厢改装成急救站

    在新德里多数医院出现不堪重负现象后,当局将废弃的列车车厢以及旅店和会议大厅改建成临时病房,收治新冠病毒患者。为此,需要大量医护人员。而正如新德里卫生部长西索迪亚(Manish Sisodia)所说,这恰是眼下最大问题:”人手不足是个大问题,我们需要专业医护人员。没有哪种卫生系统会被预设应对这种规模的大瘟疫。这样的情形100年来未发生过。”

    据印度电视台报道,自新冠疫情发生以来,该国已有300多名医生因接触病毒而丧生。一段时间来,尤其是在免费收治穷人的国营医院,资源紧缺问题凸显。

    谁有钱,立刻就能得到检测机会

    库马尔(Pradeep Kumar)抱怨说,穷人得不到什么帮助。怀孕的妻子检测呈阳性后,他马上将妻子送入了医院。他看到,病人的浴室极脏,入院两天后,妻子还没能看到过医生一回,病房里还躺着另外6名妇女,而医护人员们的那种举动,”就好像她们都是麻风病人”。

    来自新德里、被确诊感染新冠病毒的健身教练库玛(Manoj Kumar)说,他和很多人一样曾在医院外排长队,等很多个小时才能就医。他抱怨说,那些开豪车的病人,总是立刻能得到救治。

    “富人们立刻就能进医院挂号就诊,我看到,那些医院门卫收了钱,就让这些人进去。其他人则要等数个小时。而有一些人根本就没钱买吃的”,库玛说。

    多数地区仍放宽措施–尽管感染病例增加

    尽管感染人数继续上升,全国范围内确诊病例已超50万,印度一度实施的全面”停摆” 却继续被放宽。目前,理发馆、美容店,还有健身中心,也恢复了营业。

    不过,在若干城镇和地区,限制措施重又严格起来。例如,当地新感染数量急剧增加后,南部千万人口都市钦奈(Chennai)恢复实施”停摆”。

  • Goat to be kidding: WATCH daring animal rescue in India

    A video of the daring rescue of a goat from a deep pit in India, requiring a great deal of teamwork and a bit of acrobatics, has gone viral. Viewers were amazed by the bravery of one of the men.
    Footage of the incident, shared online by Hardi Singh, a police chief in the State of Assam, shows an impromptu rescue team trying to reach for an animal stuck inside a narrow hole in the middle of a field. It turned out to be too deep, and one young local volunteered to be lowered into the pit.
    Two others held the rescuer by his legs, as he tried to grab and ultimately pull the goat out. The animal was apparently not very pleased with its experience, and dashed into a field right after the rescue.

    The exact purpose of the hole remains a mystery, but the video shows other similar openings nearby, suggesting they may have been dug for fence posts. Singh called upon the authorities to locate the holes and get them covered to avoid similar mishaps in future.

  • Businessman Whose Tabloid Published Madhya Pradesh Sex Tapes Arrested

    A controversial businessman and the owner of a tabloid in Madhya Pradesh, wanted for the past seven months in over 40 cases, including rape and human trafficking, was arrested from neighbouring Gujarat on Sunday, the police said.
    Jeetu Soni, who had a bounty of Rs 1.6 lakh in his name and cases including those of land grabbing, blackmailing, rape, extortion and fraud, was arrested from his native Amreli district of Gujarat, a senior police officer said.

    Soni was an influential businessman who enjoyed political patronage from both the Congress and the BJP in the state and had considerable clout with senior police officers.

    However, he had found himself without any political favours after his tabloid ran racy articles centred around a sex scandal that was busted in in September last year that involved senior advisors of Shivraj Singh Chouhan during his previous term as the chief minister which had jolted the political, bureaucratic and police circles of the state.

    When the Congress government was in power in the state last year, a dance bar, two bungalows, a hotel and restaurant among other properties owned by Soni were also was raided by police and three of his properties were demolished.

    Five women and a man were arrested in the racket for allegedly blackmailing several influential people using the sex tapes.

    Earlier, the state police had seized more than 4,000 files from the laptops and mobile phones of the accused arrested in the case.

    According to sources, the audio recordings, video clips, and screenshots of chats were used to allegedly blackmail bureaucrats, politicians, and businessmen in the state.
