Doctor Role in Corona Virus


Challenges and Responsibility of Doctors in

 Coronavirus Outbreak

The world is again facing the threat of a deadly infection. After the Ebola outbreaks in Africa, the WHO has declared the novel coronavirus, spreading from Wuhan city in China December, another public health emergency of international concern. At this time, when I write the summary of coronavirus it;'s already infected all over the world. While the healthcare system is put to the tougher tests, it is also a crucial time to phase the coronavirus and they didn't found out the cure. All over the world is finding a cure for coronavirus but any stage they have been failed.

It's also a critical moment that the roles and responsibilities of family doctors are assessed and recognized. Like many other family doctors from HongKong, we reminisce about the latest outbreak. We have learned a painful lesson from the SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) outbreak 17 years ago. Since that 2003 fatal outbreak, the role of family doctors in risk reduction and preparedness to a medical emergency has gained both locally and globally.

There are many opportunities for Doctors to contribute to medical emergencies.

Doctors as Gatekeepers: 'First in, Last out'

Doctors are often the first contacts of patients and are thus 'gatekeepers' in the fight against the coronavirus. As trusted and respected members of communities, doctors can improve knowledge and understanding of risks, through their consultation and engagement with government and leaders, communicate those risks and opportunities for mitigating them to the public in an accurate and truthful way.

Doctors have a 'First in, Last out' role. They have always helped and stood at the forefront. They always worked on 24 hours and some doctors and patients have do not goto at their own home 20-30 days. As well they are also the ones who manage the aftermath of contingencies. Outbreaks would bring long-lasting consequences to both the physical and psychological health of a community, from one generation to another. Successive generations of family doctors continue to provide care and treatment.

The Doctor advises, 
    "This is the time for facts, not fear", 
    "This is time for science, not rumors", 
    "This is the time for solidarity, not stigma".
