Dr Devi Shetty panel suggests setting up children’s hospitals, HDU, ICUs in state to tackle 3rd wave

Bengaluru, Jun 22: The expert committee on the prevention of Covid third wave in the state has recommended establishing Paediatric High Dependency Units (HDU), Intensive Care Units (ICU) and children's hospital in district and taluk hospitals as well as medical college hospitals to protect the children against the third wave as children were more likely to be affected.

The expert committee headed by noted cardiac surgeon Dr Devi Prasad Shetty submitted its interim report to chief minister B S Yediyurappa in Bengaluru on Tuesday.



The committee has advised the state government to enlist the help of experts to mobilise human resources, funds and also collaborate with different medical bodies to tackle the problem of shortages of doctor and nurses and also seek the assistance of non-governmental voluntary agencies and corporate firms besides the general public to face the possible onslaught of the third wave.

Accordingly, prioritize to eliminate malnutrition among children and provide psychiatrists in all hospitals to build up the morale and mental health of children affected by Covid besides taking steps to solve oxygen shortages and post-Covid assistance were the other major suggestions.

Pointing out that vaccinating children, all students and teachers were very much essential, the committee has asked the government to vaccinate these sections on a priority basis and consider reopening schools and colleges in a phased manner.

Colleges could be reopened after ensuring that all the above 18 students were vaccinated, the committee suggested.

Health and family welfare minister Dr K Sudhakar, home and law minister Basavaraj Bommai and other senior officials were present at the meeting.

    Following link has massive wave graphs after vaccinations in different countries, an article compiled By French Dr Gérard Delépine at Health Impact News... "Two months ago, we tried to alert people to the paradoxical results of the covid19 vaccines by publishing the pre- and post-vaccination mortality curves for Israel and Great Britain [1] which already showed that these vaccinations were followed by ‘a considerable increase in contamination and mortality lasting 6 to 8 weeks after the start of vaccination. [2] Since this period, vaccination campaigns have spread worldwide even to countries where covid was not present. And everywhere they have been followed by a dramatic rise in new infections and mortality for several weeks or months. [3] How many deaths and severe accidents will it take for executives, WHO, health agencies FDA, EMA among others, to look at the proven results of this experimental pseudo-vaccination in the real world and derive the results from it? consequences ?"...

    Is this a practical joke Devi Shetty panel. On one side you recommend opening schools and at the same time you talk about third wave preparations. It clearly shows you are aware of catastrophe waiting to happen and you would like to experiment with our children by opening schools. Its a bonanza time for the medical mafia educational mafia and politicians to mint money. We will not let this happen. No child will attend school unless vaccinated and all parents need to take a strong stand on this for your childs sake.

    Canadian politician Derek Sloan on dangers of western vaccines... "PM Derek Sloan arranged the press conference, and invited Dr. Bryan Bridle, Dr. Patrick Phillips, and Dr. Donald Welsh to give short presentations on how good doctors and scientists are being censored in Canada, and being harassed and threatened for speaking the truth, which is not getting out to the masses. These men are true heroes! They have put their careers and lives on the line to speak the truth about the genocide currently being carried out and the crimes against humanity over the COVID-19 response and bioweapon shots."... Press Conference video at following link, (looks like liberals or communists are controlling canada) https://alethonews.com/2021/06/19/canadian-politician-derek-sloan-uses-parliament-hill-to-give-voices-to-censored-doctors-and-scientists-blowing-the-whistle-on-covid-19-genocide-and-crimes-against-humanity/

    You may be right. But the vaccination is requirement for travel and hospitality industry in most of the countries. So no choice for majority.

    Right. These BigPharma people, elites or masons let them make money in the name of vaccines but decimating innocent people also ? These western liberal elites and communist chinese least bother about common man, middle class or normal rich people. They are after money, power depopulation and pushing only their clans. Looks like it is coming to everyone as it is written in the Book of Revelation Ch 13-16,17 coming of mark of the beast (mandatory vaccine passport or chip) for travel and for business. But Book of Revelation Ch 16:2 warns of God's wrath sores on body to those who are so chipped or marked. With frequent lockdowns, road, air travel suspensions, instead of getting stuck somewhere better be self sustained by growing one own food vegetables / fruits backyard / rooftop is the best option. 1000 years of Peace (Rev Ch 20, 21, 22) after cleanup of all evil within this decade or early next decade as per many recent divine messages.

    Covid advisory committee at centre gave warning of second wave to centre on April itself yet was completely ignored. We can only pray since govt is least interested of medical advice.
