The challenge management by private hospitals in and around Pune during pandemic
Keywords:
pandemic, challenge management, private hospitalsAbstract
The Earth has so far survived five mass extinctions, the last one wiped out the dinosaurs as the dominant species on the face of this Earth, since the rise and dominance of humanity, mankind has always faced a perpetual challenge of survival, we have survived the Ice age, bronze age etc. and now are faced with the problems of poverty, pollution and population. One constant during this period has been the presence of microbes like bacteria and virus, the sixth mass extinction which is set on us in form of global warming is further accelerated by the rise of pandemics such as the Spanish flu of 1920s and the COVID-19 virus of 2020,even after a century, we have not seen the world invest in public healthcare much and when there is a mass level infection, the saddening horror story of hospitals running out of resources and unable to accommodate the patients, we have invested billions of dollars to be ready with a response in the eventuality of a war, but we have no preparation for the outbreak of a disease which is a certainty in the long run!
