Anatomy of an epidemic – Times of India (blog)

It is just right, that the Health Ministry has chosen the IMA (Indian Medical Association), Indias largest voluntary autonomous body of doctors from all fields. The key features that make it suitable for the Gorakhpur enquiry, is that this body would be looking into the matter medically, and not with an eye of punishment. I am quite sure, with a vast, mostly non-government aided practicing experience, many must already be knowing what in all probability would mainly be a viral epidemic. Surely there would be areas of suggestions for improvement of overall care and preparedness.

Another advantage, it is not answerable and should not lean to any political entity, nor can itbesqueezed around by protocol, as it is not a Constitutional body, unlike the MCI. That it shall use true scientific principles, is understood.

If you look from the point of advantages of adversity, it is just as well that awareness has finally spread, systems are upgraded, and if this turns out to be a viral epidemic, the best standards of epidemic control, and prevention shall have to be put in place.Gorakhpur is a city that has had many trysts with epidemics.

To put it lightly, sometime back I happened to open the topic with a gentleman from the place. A citys description is best stated in its own language. This is what that gentleman said, Aap bas yoon samajhiye ki Baman (brahmin), Bimaari (disease), aur Bihari (no offence, every community has a sore point) sey Gorakhpur trust (infested, soft T) hai! Never had a better summary, which the IMA team may keep in mind!

The first reported viral epidemic in Gorakhpur was in 1978 (Japanese, JE), where 1022 cases were reported, with 297 deaths. After that the road has been rather bumpy.

The year 2005 was rather tragic. The outbreak reported was 5,737, mostly JE. 1344 children died.

But to get the full view, the Directorate of National Vector Borne Disease Control Program (NVBDCP), has reported 26,668 between 2010-2017. The break up was 24,668 of Acute encephalitis syndromes (AES), an all-encompassing terminology WHO, though it settles down to a condition of fulminant encephalitis, as against the known virus JE. There were 4,093 deaths in the same period for AES, and 307 in the JE cases.

Gorakhpur has the dubious reputation of being the world capital of JE, though the total worldwide population at exposure, and that which may suffer is close to 3 billion, which would include South-East Asia prominently.

This years epidemic was unfortunate, but such is the story of all vagaries of nature. The BRD Medical College, may have expanded a bit, but that it should be epidemic ready, is difficult to imagine. For that matter, which medical facility shall have 2,000 extra ICU beds ready where the disease does not accept anything as a cure, and supportive care is all that can be given.

One may overstock antibiotics, saline drips, ventilators, even rooftops with oxygen, but the real process that takes down the patient is the inflammation inside the brain that causes increase in the respiratory rate-a central process, but not a lung pathology that would be amenable to oxygen.

However, medicine has a place for palliation and one can understand the emotions of those who felt that oxygen was in shortage. Ventilators, oxygen are what can be done as a palliation, and as a physician I would go a step further in what soothes the patients relatives. But the fact is that the gasping stage many patients reach due to disrupted central ventilatory centre, is not because of loss of oxygen, and even ventilatory support is less likely to change course.

However, I cannot say that such prop-ups facilities should not be ready. The outcome of the disease may not change though. I suppose this is a key question the IMA enquiry committee may like to take. Till we have vaccines that ensure protection, and till we have medicines that are curative, some actions can be initiated to change or dampen the incidence of the disease.

It is widely stated that Gorakhpur, a densely populated town, close to the Himalayan foothills of Nepal, has many water-bodies, and water pooling after the rains start, which is the period between May and November. Being a vector-borne disease, regular fogging in such areas should start to keep the population of vectors down.

Generic sprays and mosquito repellent ointments should be for free distribution (much like free condoms as disease prevention).

Health workers may be doubled to keep appropriate control over the still waters. Mosquito sprays and creams should be checked and supplied at every house. Expenses need not be high, and would also create extra rural jobs.

Surely, the enquiry shall bring better facilities to the BRD Medical College that may reduce fatalities in other diseases. Should doctors be suspended or dismissed? There may be specific cases, but I fail to understand any direct action or omission that would throw the blame directly on them.

Transferring doctors? That would be the best gift!

The inspection by IMA pending, the remedial aspects are technical, mostly regarding the methods of mitigating the vector population, and giving a first shield to the population.

A few years ago, Rotary International and IMA, made India Polio-free.

Innovative epidemiologic techniques need to be put in place. May I add to the vocabulary, Technical mosquito nets You got me wrong The ones that keep the mosquitoes trapped in, the way they do in Punjab!

To make the tragedy bearable, may I be spared this one:

Badaltey zamaaney, mein khayaal kuchh aisa aaya, Parwaana bhesh badalkar, kahin Qaatil bankey to na aaya(In a changing world, a thought just came to mind,Was a killer vector, impersonating the romantic drone?)

The anatomy of a sectional upset – nwitimes.com

Brandon Grubl was frustrated when his friends from the Porter County Conference spoke with him on March 5, 2011.

The slight was used as fuel before he boarded a bus in route to a very big stage.

His basketball buddies told him what almost everyone in the Region and the state of Indiana had already concluded.

Grubl's Morgan Township team had no chance in its sectional championship game at Bowman Academy.

"All my friends said they were going to the Merrillville-Valpo game instead," Grubl remembered on Wednesday night. "Nobody believed in us."

In 2009, Bowman beat the Cherokees 82-66 to win the championship. In 2010 it was 98-70, as the Eagles cut down the nets and went on to win the Class A state championship.

Morgan coach Matt Bush gathered his underdogs in the hallway and said one thing to his team.

"If you don't think we have a shot in this game, then walk out now."

Grubl went out and scored 22 points as his Cherokees shocked Bowman 53-49, in one of the Region's biggest sectional upsets.

Considering that the Eagles returned to state championship games the following three Marches is proof of this David vs. Goliath tale.

"A few of us, the vets, felt like we had a shot," Grubl said. "We knew we had to keep it close in the beginning, and if we did that, we'd beat them in the end. We knew all the pressure was on them.

"We were playing with house money."

As the 107th IHSAA boys basketball tournament tips off on Tuesday, one thing is certain.

"There will be upsets all over the state," E.C. Central coach Pete Trgovich said. "It happens every year."

Trgovich won a state title at E.C. Washington in 1971, when his Senators were the heavy favorites in every game. But when he led the Cardinals to the 2007 Class 4A state championship over Indianapolis North Central, E.C. was a heavy underdog.

In Trgovich's last three seasons as the Cards coach -- 2006, '07 and '16 -- his team has cut down the nets at the sectional.

"You have to prepare for anybody and everyone," Trgovich said. "You have to understand the regular season doesn't mean anything. There is a difference. A lot of people say we got a good draw because we got the bye.

"But I'd rather be playing. I also don't like having seven days off."

E.C. Central (13-9) will play the winner of the Morton (13-9) and Highland (9-13) winner. If the Cards get past the semifinal, they'll be in the championship on their home court.

"We can't play down to our competition," said E.C. senior Jermaine Couisnard, who carries a 27.5 scoring average into the tournament. "We have to go out there and play one game at a time. We can't worry about a game we don't have, just the next one."

That was the philosophy Tom Johnson's 1998 Crown Point Bulldogs team had. C.P. entered the tournament with seven losses. Few thought they had a shot at anything.

And in such a scenario history can be made.

"We had a group of kids who believed," said Johnson, now coaching at Greater South Shore Conference co-champion Wheeler. "No one picked us to do anything.

"So it became an 'us against the world' mentality in our locker room."

Crown Point upset Merrillville 60-49 to win the program's first sectional championship since 1986. As they prepared to play a Hammond team with four Division I players in the old one-game regional, something happened.

"The blizzard hit after we won," Johnson said. "The roads were impassable and we only missed one day of practice. Our parents found 4 by 4s and were going around picking up kids to get them to the gym."

Crown Point shocked the Wildcats 61-56. Then, played toe-to-toe with Zach Randolph's Marion team in the semistate before falling 76-63.

"Those were the most competitive kids I've ever coached," Johnson said. "They hated to lose more than they liked winning."

Clint Swan now coaches the Bulldogs, a similar group trying to make history and win the program's third straight sectional championship. The teams in the Class 4A Michigan City Sectional have a combined 100 wins.

It is, without question, one of Indiana's toughest sectional. And for the first time in the last three seasons the Bulldogs are the favorites, getting a draw that has Valparaiso, Michigan City and Merrillville all on the other side.

"If one team is an overwhelming favorite, which we're not, they can't get caught looking ahead," Swan said. "You can't ever take any night off. This group has kept it simple. It's always, 'The next play. The next practice. The next game.'"

Purdue-bound Sasha Stefanovic knows his team is the favorite for the first time in his career. The Bulldogs snuck up on people in the past. In fact, his half-court shot at the end of regulation allowed C.P. to beat Valpo 59-54 in double overtime in last year's championship game.

"Not really," Stefanovic said when asked if he feels a target on his team's back. "We know everyone is going to give us their best shot. We just have to go there and play our game, play fearless.

"It's the sectional. It's going to be gritty not pretty."

Griffith coach Gary Hayes is in his 16th year as a coach in Indiana, his fifth leading the Panthers. Griffith has won the last two sectionals at the Hammond Civic Center. When he was coaching at Lake Station years ago, winning a sectional was a much tougher task.

"I always thought the hardest game to play is opening night, the first game, if you're the favorite," Hayes said. "Upsets can happen there if your kids aren't ready to go. I've seen it happen."

Griffith will play Hammond in the second game Tuesday night. The Wildcats beat the Panthers earlier in the season.

And for the second March in a row, Valparaiso coach Barak Coolman will have to do just that. The Vikings open against Michigan City on the Wolves home court. If they survive they get Merrillville. And if they survive most believe they'll get C.P.

Coolman won three straight sectionals at Fort Wayne Northrop from 2011 through 2013. He played the favorite in the first game each year, yet his team found a way to sidestep any upsets.

"In the first game everyone's going to have nerves and jitters," Coolman said. "You have seniors thinking it could be their last game. A big part of not getting upset is relaxing and playing your game. Do the things you did in the regular season when you had success.

"There is only one good draw and that's getting a bye all the way into the regional."

The Anatomy of Awareness with Amanda Foy, Episode 48, February 21, 2017

Amanda says that guilt and shame are the only useless emotions. They have no purpose but to make you feel horrible. Guilt is acceptance without positive action. Shame is a lack of acceptance or acknowledgment of having a human experience. While trauma is defined by each person. What one person finds traumatic another person may not. It can depend on what we were taught and how we are expected to be.

When you get sick, it is your bodys way of taking you out of a situation you dont know how to handle. Illness comes when you are too stubborn to do the work you need to do, so it is a good thing. ~ Amanda Foy

Grey’s Anatomy Finale Sets Up Firehouse Spin-Off – TV.com

Grey's Anatomy put the pieces in place for its recently-announced firefighter spin-off with Thursday's Season 13 finale.

Picking up right after the events of the previous week's episode, the finale picks up with the hospital in chaos. Jackson (Jesse Williams) is on a mission looking for Edwards (Jerrika Hinton), while Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) is looking for Nathan (Martin Henderson) as well as Erin (Darby Camp), the missing girl who's with Edwards, after running into her frantic father. Minnick (Marika Dominczyk) is Minnick, so she's mostly concerned about whether people are following protocol amid a crisis. And April is (Sarah Drew) mad that Jackson, being the type of guy who runs into a fire, has gone after Stephanie and hasn't been heard from since.

Inside the hospital, Stephanie's alive, but dazed and badly burned after the explosion. But Erin is trapped under some lab equipment that has impaled her leg. After managing to free Erin from the machine, Stephanie soaks a blanket and her hair in water to carry herself and Erin through a literal wall of fire to escape the room in which they're trapped. Unfortunately, the stairwell is also engulfed in flames. But they make it up to the entrance to the rooftop... where Stephanie realizes she's left her key card back down in the original room and can't get out. She covers Erin with the wet blanket and promises her they're going to be OK.

Then Stephanie somehow manages to spot her key card through the smoke and flames(?) and runs down to grab it, leaving Erin by herself. She successfully retrieves it and they run out onto the roof. Stephanie screams at the firefighters below, but they can't hear her, and meanwhile Erin appears to be bleeding out from her leg injury.

Meanwhile, Meredith finally finds Nathan -- in the middle of a surgery, one floor below the fire. And Jackson's search for Stephanie gets derailed by a stray patient, so he brings her out, only to get yelled at by Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and April, who shoves an oxygen mask onto his face. As he's explaining to Bailey (Chandra Wilson) that he was looking for Edwards, Minnick says that she got caught up in the chaos and forgot to report to the police that Edwards was missing, as Jackson instructed her to do. (Really, Minnick?! You had, literally, one job.) Fortunately, Ben (Jason George) remembers seeing Edwards in the hallway with the patient. He and the firefighters run back into the hospital, where they follow Erin's blood trail up to the roof and find Stephanie frantically trying to resuscitate her.

The doctors do all they can to save Erin -- and her leg -- while Stephanie ignores her own injuries and stays by Erin's side until she's stabilized. Once Erin is out of the woods, Stephanie promptly passes out.

While all this is going on, Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) is driving Owen (Kevin McKidd) to the hospital to meet his rescued sister Megan.

Outside, Meredith and Nathan, after finishing up their surgery, are taking a breather in the ambulance. Meredith makes sure that Nathan has sucked enough oxygen into his lungs before telling him the news that Megan's alive. He initially is in disbelief, and repeats "that's not funny," before finally collapsing into a tearful coughing fit.

As the sun comes up the next day, Nathan leaves to go meet Owen and Amelia at the hospital. Meredith, knowing how she would react if she found out Derek was alive, encourages him to go without hesitation, even offering to drive. Owen and Amelia are waiting for the helicopter when it arrives, and we see Megan being unloaded on a gurney -- but we'll have to wait until next season to find out what kind of condition she's in.

Catherine (Debbie Allen) grills Webber (James Pickens Jr.), Bailey and Minnick about what went wrong with the emergency procedure. Minnick tries to cast blame on Webber, saying that if Stephanie had been in counseling like she was supposed to be, none of this would have happened. Bailey fires Minnick on the spot.

Elsewhere, Maggie apologizes to April for yelling at Jackson, and April says it's clear Jackson has feelings for her and she should just go for it. ~New romance out of nowhere alert!~

And Alex (Justin Chambers) is treating Edwards, who's still laid up and temporarily resisting morphine for her burns. She says that, once she's recovered, she's determined to get away from medicine and spend her days traveling and exploring, and gives Webber her verbal resignation from Grey Sloan right then and there from her hospital bed.

We didn't get to see too much of the firefighters in tonight's episode, but the finale was proof that Shondaland can handle ablaze with aplomb. And it seems like Edwards has left the building. What will a Jackson-Maggie relationship look like in Season 14? Will any characters spin off into the crossover? And how is having Megan back going to change things for Owen, Nathan, Amelia and Meredith? We'll have to wait a few months to find out!

Grey's Anatomy returns in the fall.
