Dr Naresh Trehan on #IndiaAgainstCOVID19 Telethon:
- We have recommended and the government is also thinking on the same line that we need to create COVID hospitals. It can done in two ways: Either to turn the present facility into COVID19 dedicated facility or private hospitals can isolate areas to dedicate it for COVID patients.

- Major hospitals in Gurugram have adopted a 500-bed hospital and we are on the way of converting it to COVID hospitals and if need, this will be enhanced further

- Due to the lockdown, we got some time for planning. Currently we know that Italy was ill-prepared and many doctors have got sick. Now many manufacturing firms are coming forward to help in providing essential items and Personal Protective Equipments (PPEs).
