Having been in the thick of the things and monitoring the situation closely, life took a new turn for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation’s Khairatabad Assistant Medical Officer Dr Bhargav Narayana, when he tested positive for Covid-19. Not once, but twice.
Dr Narayana’s was a rare case. After first testing positive on July 2, he went through the isolation period, following all guidelines and after 14 days, got tested once again, hoping he was out of it. However, the second test again showed him to be positive. Isolation it was again, till he finally conquered Covid-19 when he tested negative on July 29. The ordeal that took almost an entire month, however, did not dampen his spirits and confidence. Though a bit weak, he is gearing up to return to work at the earliest.
It had all started with a mild fever and then eventually cough and throat pain took over. After testing positive the first time, he went into self-isolation and strictly followed all guidelines.
“Initially, there was some anxiety and pressure but once calmness took over, I prepared a schedule and followed the guidelines strictly,” said Dr Narayana.
He was prescribed Tamiflu 75 (two tablets, twice a day after meals for seven days), Medrol 4 mg (tablets twice a day for five days), Pan 40 (tablets before food), P750 (tablets thrice a day for five days). Zincovit tablets and Limcee tablets (twice a day) T Today
