Dear Forum,

/message/12309

The number of " Umeshes " does not matter--he may be one or there may be

numerous like him.

To me ,a health care provider,a doctor,what is important is every single life. I

fail to understand ( and I am sure I am not the only one in the crowd) where is

human angle gone in treating patients.

I totally agree with Umesh,rules and guidelines are OK,but they should not be in

lieu of some one's life.

Not only that, I reiterate my earlier stand that where was govt/NACO,as far as

HIV treatment from outside ART is concerned in the begining epidemic.

Why should PLHA be punished for trying to survive in those times with the help

of doctors who had a passion for these unfortunate victims?.

Why is NACO silent about ever changing guidelines all over the world---even they

are changing (eg.cut off for asymptomatic patient is 250 now and not 200 as was

the case not very long ago in NACO controlled ART centers).

Questions are plenty,but only answer is welfare of the human race and

priority should be the weak (health wise or wealth wise or otherwise)

In complete solidarity with all " Umeshes "

Dear Sir and Madam

Re: /message/12309

The only answer which i could think of is just to trust the doctors of all the

art centres and decentralising this second line program.

These medical officers are the one in the field and know the patient

individually rather than the team located somewhere else.

Afterall this secondline do need a trainig of these art medical officers and

strategy of testing all the patients for their ontreatment viral load status

am sure as the art program got its success this second line program would never

be a waste of money as all our art centres have proven their efficacy nation

wide and now its time to think of decentralising this secondline art program.

all our medical officers would never waste a single penny of the government when

compared to all the scams around the nation, this essential step would serve a

noble cause a strategical training and proper use of the manpower resources of

our national program would give better results.

Why not utilize services of doctors like mine who have rich experience in

treating patients and have seen HIV medicine evolve in the country?
