MMC Community Medicine

Hello all!!

COVID-19 did take a toll on all the activities of the department. Entire department has been fighting the pandemic in various arenas. It started with setting up and supervising COVID-19 Screening OPD at District Hospital, Mysuru and KR Hospital, Mysuru. Then there were quarantine supervision at BM Hospital, Red zone duties at COVID care center, Active surveillance at urban slums, a little bit of COVID-19 helpline calls' management etc. The list goes on.

6 months back, one of the most colorful feathers got added to our collection in the form of CHARAKA VACCINATION CENTER. Today, the Centre is standing tall facing all the odds. And this is only because of the team work. It is our togetherness that has kept our energy high despite the tiring work.

Here's a heartfelt thanks to all the members of the team.

Special mention of the most hard working hands i.e. all the post-graduates of the department is a must. They are: Dr Harshini Suresh, Dr Snehalatha BM, Dr Thulasi M, Dr Shobharani HG, Dr Radha, Dr Sunmathi D, Dr Rachana K, Dr Shraddha P, Dr Anusha Vas.

Come one. Come all.
Let us get vaccinated. Let us all follow COVID-appropriate behavior.behaviour
Let us continue the fight till the pandemic ceases to exist.

A big thanks to all Media persons for their support!
