Around 90,000 Indian doctors are urging the government to let them help the nation fight the battle against Covid-19. The reason they’re not allowed to work is that they have acquired their medical degrees from different nations like China, Ukraine, and Russia.
While their demands don’t include conducting surgeries, they just want to work as frontline workers. The executive director of NBE, Pawanindra Lal has issued a statement saying, “They are not accustomed to Indian Healthcare problems at all. “
India is the worst-hit nation and soon there might be excessive shortage of frontline workers and it is a complete possibility that we might see patients dying in the ICU since there were no doctors or nurses to look after them. Frontline workers are already overworked right now and it looks like their situation is only going to get worse.
Despite their degrees being recognized by the World Health Organization, they are being made to sit idly.
