To mark one year of operations at the Nesco Covid-19 centre in Goregaon, Mumbai, healthcare workers showed off some peppy dance moves. Captured in a video, the healthcare profession­als clad in PPE kits can be seen dancing inside the patients’ ward during an entertainm­ent initiative. Moments like these are a ray of hope in the dark.

No words can express the grief of losing a mother. But Altaf Peer, whose mother died to Covid-19 turned his grief into action. He started serving food to the patients of a government hospital at Fatehgarh, Rajasthan, with the help of the members of a youth club. What an inspiratio­n for others who are making their way down the same road!

Moved by the plight of the villagers, who don’t have any medical supplies, a group of girls from the Capital, sisters Arsheen and Surveen Singh and friends Prisha Gandhi and Auorra Uban have been distributi­ng medical kits, consisting of a thermomete­r, an oximeter and medicines, to Rangpuri, Jhandewala­n, Sindhi Basti and Lal Gumbad in Delhi.

The Covid-19 pandemic has snatched away the livelihood­s of many people, making survival difficult. Actor Pranitha Subhash distribute­d ration kits to 100 makeup artists of the Kannada film industry. Taking to Instagram, she expressed how she took all social distancing protocols while distributi­ng the kits. Kudos to her efforts!

Three-year-old Lipavi from Nagaland realised she had cold symptoms and immediatel­y went to a health centre for a checkup all by herself, as her parents had left for the paddy fields. Her story has gone viral with social media users praising the little girl for being so responsibl­e in time when even adults are reluctant to get themselves tested.

The Delhi Police is reaching out to families of officers who died due to Covid-19 and taking cognisance of the bereaved families. Recently, they visited Pooja Rana, wife of the late constable Amit Rana. Payment of insurance, grant of compassion­ate appointmen­t to eligible next of kin are a part of the policy.
