Focus should be on women's health, emergency care & training: Experts
The New Indian Express Bengaluru|January 03, 2025
AS we step into 2025, challenges from 2024 still loom large. Issues such as rising maternal deaths and the spread of counterfeit medicines have exposed serious weaknesses in the state's healthcare system.
RISHITA KHANNA @Bengaluru

In 2024, the state introduced several key laws, including the hookah ban, colour ban, and Gruha Arogya scheme, which positioned it for progress. However, experts warn that 2025 must be the year when these laws are fully implemented, ensuring they bring about real change and impact.

Dr Ramesh GH, head of Emergency and Critical Care at BMCRI, emphasized that while 2024 brought a series of alarming incidents, they all underscored that without a solid foundation, the lives of countless individuals who rely on government healthcare facilities will continue to be at risk. From strengthening critical care units and emergency departments to ensuring properly trained staff and robust infrastructure, these are the essential steps the state must take. Only then can it truly live up to the promises it has made and deliver the quality care it claims to provide.

Dreaming of a dystopia

Individual opinions might differ on several counts over Justin Kurzel's The Order, but for two points of consensus: its eerie sense of timeliness and relevance in these hate-filled, polarising times and a solid performance by an unrecognisable Jude Law.
