Are women unwilling to disclose COVID-19-like symptoms and reach out for treatment?
The ongoing door-to-door survey in Mysuru for identifying people with COVID-19 symptoms for providing early treatment in an effort to mitigate last-minute complications and hospitalisation, has disclosed the fact that many women, in view of their domestic obligations, ignore their health.
“The women are not sent to the COVID-19 Care Centres since there won’t be anyone to deal with household work in their absence. They do not get the rest or nutrition required,” said Deputy Commissioner Rohini Sindhuri, responding to the outcome of the survey being carried out by the ASHAs and healthcare volunteers in the city and taluks.
