Who bears the cost of their treatment? We should recover it from them, along the cost incurred for treating those they further infected. Plus a processing fee equal to the value of their total assets. I don't want a naya paisa of my tax money go to help these cretins.

We don't know yet. It has just been 7 days.

The good thing is the increase in the infection rate is after 7 days from the lockdown.

We will know early next week. However GoI might extend it for another 7 days.

If the a$$holes from Nizammuddin are disregarded, the lockdown has worked. Excluding that lot, we will be the slowest to go from 1000 to 2000 cases (also the 2nd slowest after Japan to go from 100 to 1000). Also, the average infected person arriving from abroad has managed to infect just 1 more person to date (against excluding the 2000+ sitting and coughing together in an enclosed space in Nizammuddin).

Everyone expecting a spike needs to do both.

Those dorms and convention centers are attractive because it is an efficient way to manage a large cohort of sub-acute positive with a small healthcare workforce. Unless you can get complete buildings spreading patients around would have quite an impact on the mobilized workforce, ambulances and other support..This is why GOI and state governments need to look at government universities and transforming class rooms, and student hostels into these. Add capacity now if the larger metros project a spike in cases. Unlike NY, London or Paris..India's major cities still have time.
Even moderate Apartment complexes in India typically have anywhere around 100-200 flats spread across a handful of towers.

Are complete unoccupied buildings available in major cities? I think that could be considered but hotels seem more suitable given they should be empty (or can be made empty) and you get all the rooms that are in close proximity to each other thus allowing more efficient staffing.

A day after the Jammu and Kashmir High Court came to the rescue of 400 pilgrims stranded at Mata Vaishno Devi shrine in the region, in New Delhi, a case was registered against the preacher and his aides who organised the Tablighi Jamaat congregation in Basti Nizamuddin, violating government orders and exposing many to the deadly coronavirus.

These two consecutive events show contrasting ways of handling the crises.

On March 31, Maulana Saad and others members of the Tablighi Jamaat were booked under the Epidemic Disease Act, 1897 and relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code for alleged violation of government directions given to the management of Markaz in Basti Nizamuddin regarding restrictions for prevention, and treatment of the Covid-19 infection.

The fatality rates are grossly exaggerated because of the bottleneck of limited test kits forcing testing to be done on symptomatic and serious cases alone...

From the study: "From an extensive analysis of data from different regions of the world, our best estimate at the current time for the case fatality ratio of COVID-19 in China is 1·38% (95% CrI 1·23–1·53). Although this value remains lower than estimates for other coronaviruses, including SARS24 and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS),25 it is substantially higher than estimates from the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic.26, 27 Our estimate of an infection fatality ratio of 0·66% in China was informed by PCR testing of international Wuhan residents returning on repatriation flights. This value was consistent with the infection fatality ratio observed in passengers on the Diamond Princess cruise ship up to March 5, 2020, although it is slightly above the upper 95% confidence limit of the age-adjusted infection fatality ratio observed by March 25 (of 712 confirmed cases, 601 have been discharged, ten have died, and 11 remain in a critical condition). This difference might be due to repatriation flight data slightly underestimating milder infections, or due to cruise passengers having better outcomes because of a potentially higher-than-average quality of health care."

We have complete apartment complexes which are often finished and unoccupied. Even some towers can be fenced off from the rest. Builders hold a lot of inventory. There could be concerns from existing inhabitants of nearby complexes or towers, Govt can offer them (temporary) relocation. But huge amounts of unsold inventory exists and i am sure with some digging, 1-2 complexes can be located in/near each city with at least a few hundred rooms easily.

Hotels are a no-go because a) they are in heavily crowded locations b) the amount of pre-existing stuff inside makes a start easy but sanitization a huge issue. A flat for instance can be easily stripped and disinfected - few have any fancy furnishings and leave it to the purchaser to put in stuff, interiors. Hotels come with all that already and you'll have a tough sell convincing the owner who doesn't want his property to be tagged with the virus tag or get clearance (determining fair value).

I wonder if we can throttle back on some of the restrictions. It seems our brand of the lockdown is more extensive than Cheen or Italy (which had to mimic Cheen once infections were out of control.) Those countries never completely shutdown transportation.

https://qz.com/india/1828915/indias-cor ... -pakistan/

Alok Gupta, an Indian working in Beijing, said that the China lockdown was less drastic than the one India has instituted. “Unlike India, in Beijing, buses ran,” explained Gupta. “Cabs were made to run after the first week with a plastic sheet between the passenger and the driver. Domestic flights and trains were only barred from some provinces, not all.”
...

After China, the next country that saw a rapid rise in cases was Italy. Copying China, the European country also instituted a lockdown. While the lockdown covered all of Italy, it was not as drastic as India’s. For one, it was imposed in stages. The first quarantine measure was imposed on February 21 in a region in the north and covered only 50,000 people. It was only on March 9 that the lockdown was extended nationally.
...

Even, then, though Italy did not impose restrictions as harsh as India’s. “Unlike India, here public transport was never shut down completely,” explained Neelini Sarkar an Indian citizen who lives in Milan, a hotspot for the Italian outbreak.

Italy has, instead, instituted a pass system where people can take a bus or a flight depending on need. This is starkly different from India where all transport, within or between cities, stands shut. This is in spite of the fact that, as of March 28, Italy had 9,134 Covid-19 deaths compared to India’s 19.

Maybe we need to go hard in the initial 21 days. But India needs to adapt a bit in the following days. I am worried we are doing damages above and beyond what ever the worst hit countries are doing. The masses of migrants and the lathi videos are affecting me maybe but I think we cannot continue this kind of lockdown with serious damage to the people and economy. We need to allow some loosening.

Karan M · Post by **Karan M** » 02 Apr 2020 00:06

Yes, this is why I had stated before we need to deploy Doctors with armed CPMF with CBRN gear - if these Tablighi and local jokers act like this, the cops should open fire. The rioters are making a mockery out of quarantine and contact tracing, and like the utter parasites they are, will run to the same doctors for treatment after developing symptoms. Look at the foul language and attitude shown by the guy taking the video. They are putting the entire country at risk and an example needs to be made out of them.

Not necessarily. If clusters remain identified, then as the end of the 3 week period approaches, there must be formal internship camps set up in those parts to isolate all these clusters and prevent people from exiting, with their basic necessities passed to them by public service personnel who are adequately protected, with critical cases removed by ambulance to hospital, if not a makeshift one set up using IR bogies if near railway tracks. They can't freely move around, go where they want etc ? So sad. They created their own circumstances.

Please see the subsequent post - these people once identified as clusters, must be isolated and prevented from moving within the general populace. They cannot have it both ways - refuse to follow public safety and public health directives and refuse to cooperate, AND demand the right to freedom of movement within the larger population who have cooperated.

Despite the attempts to modify the narrative from a focused nationwide lockdown to 'yuuge migrant crisis biggest since partition' created entirely by Delhi, most people have been smart enough to grasp the political games and decry it. There will be more games of how GoI is 'forcing Muslims into camps and preventing them from constitutional freedom of movement' but that will need to be adequately responded to on SM by us as well.

The next steps of isolating and interning these clusters needs prior groundwork to explain to the public in very simple terms - ideally graphics - why the use of coercive measures to keep them contained is necessarily. It is very predictable that there will be howls of protests from 'civil rights groups' completely lacking in medical sense demanding that these people be allowed to roam free, but for the good of the general public and more importantly the economy, these clusters must be contained, by armed forces if needed.

To give the government the breathing room to do this, the public needs to be on board with it ahead of time, and this understanding must be built.

What TN has been doing is establishing a containment zone in a 3-km radius where nobody is allowed to step out of their homes. I guess the peaceful ghettos that do not cooperate will have to be isolated and 'contained' in that way, probably with armed police and paramilitary. Supplies can be dropped off and the containment can be done for 4 weeks or so after the wider lockdown is over, so that the infection in the areas plays itself out. Any innocent non-peacefuls who want to get out can be evacuated and housed elsewhere.

This makes no sense whatsoever. A lot of those Tableeghi folks in TN were asymptomatic and if not for the tests would have been circulating around even more mosques spreading the disease.

Also, antibody tests play a vital role, especially for the economy. People who have had the virus and recovered are virtually 'superheroes' under the circumstances as they can go back to work especially in high risk environments like hospitals.

Ward containment if a hotspot occurs is the best answer from preventing it from spreading further.Within wards,buildings and streets which have cases should be further sanitised. Supplying essentials to houses/ apts. in a ward by home delivery ,or setting up a food kitchenfor EWS inhabitants/ migrantd would be easier ,as they being smaller and concentrated would require less teansportation.The TN method should be adopted nationwide.
