India has been buckling up and swift decisions are being taken to control the spread of the coronavirus epidemic in the country. From authorities to civilians – everyone is expected to do their part. A few hours before the country went into complete lockdown for 21 days, people from all over the country expressed their gratitude towards the doctors on the frontline on 22nd March 2020 by clapping and ringing bells, among other things at 5.00 pm as instructed by the Prime Minister of India. The Delhi Government is now taking new measures to support the doctors of the city as well.

This decision has been taken to safeguard the professionals dealing with COVID-19 patients. A few days before this order was approved, a doctor working at Mohalla Clinic contracted the virus. His family ended up testing positive as well. It is expected that these new measures will help control the disease and be helpful to the doctors.
