Despite the opening up of colleges, schools,
workplaces, and markets, the pandemic is not over.
Cases of Coronavirus continue to rise in India and all
around the world. Even though there has been a steady
decline in the number of daily confirmed cases in India,
the danger of the second wave of the Coronavirus still
looms above our heads.
Though there have been a lot of reported cases in
India, many people are still not aware of the procedure
to follow if a suspected corona case arises. In today’s
Ziqitza Presentation, we are going to talk about how to
call for an ambulance if you or your near ones are
suspected COVID positive. our household.
How to identify a Covid suspected
Patient?
Taste is the most detectable indicator- The first
thing to do would be to consult a doctor. But in an
emergency, ask the patient to eat or drink something
flavourful that they can identify easily. If they can’t
taste it, then there are high chances that they have
been infected with the virus. Lack of taste can be
identified pretty easily and in a pandemic of COVID-19,
losing one’s taste is a huge red flag.
Frequent Fever with coughs- Fever is the most
common indication of a viral infection. Do check the
temperature of the patient regularly with PPEs in place
or ask them to do it.. Fever can last mildly for about a
day in some patients, while it can last for 7 to 10 days
in others.
Diarrhea- Loose motions are also an indicator of the
Coronavirus. A long-lasting disturbance in bowel movements
that especially pertain to diarrhea can mean the infection of
COVID-19.
Fatigue and/or Chills- Fatigue or chills that run through the
body coupled with the above symptoms is a huge red sign of
the Coronavirus. If the patient feels weak and has other
symptoms like nausea or a runny nose, there is a decent
chance of them being a Corona patient.
There are many more symptoms of the Coronavirus that
include vomiting, body aches, headaches, sore throat, and
such, but the above symptoms are easily identifiable and
distinguishable for a COVID-19 case.
How To Proceed If You Suspect A
Person Of COVID-19?
Ziqitza Limited would advise you to immediately quarantine
the patient and come in no contact with him/her without
proper personal protective equipment. Ziqitza recommends a
mask, face shield, and gloves to be worn if you have to come
in contact with the suspected patient, but the best and safest
thing to do would be to ask the patient to self-quarantine.
Sanitize your surroundings if the patient is from your
household and note down carefully all the objects he/she
came in contact with. After quarantining the suspected
patient, the most important thing to do is to protect others
from infection. Wear PPE in your home if possible until the
patient recovers and ask him/her to do so too. Give the
patient nutritious food and include fluids in his/her diet. Water
should also be a key component. Though consult a doctor for
a thorough diagnosis and get to know what further steps
should be taken.

What Happens After an Ambulance
picks a patient?
The patient will be taken to the nearest hospital and will be treated
accordingly. Government officials will come to your residence if
you are the patient or related to a patient to know more about the
details for the official national COVID-19 registry.
The patient will be kept in quarantine in the hospital
under treatment and when he/she gets better, will be
discharged but would still be asked to self-
quarantine for some time. The main thing to take
away would be to match symptoms of the patients
with the symptoms given on the official site of the
CDC. Then self quarantining would be the next step
and sanitizing your surroundings would be advised.
Given one or two days, if the symptoms worsen, the
patient should then be taken to a hospital with
proper safety measures and in case of emergencies,
an ambulance needs to be called.
