InSha Allah we will stand with you till the end.
Pray more/repent more to Allah.
Don’t spread false news-don’t be like some country in defaming ppl.
Dear healthcare workers. We were trained to attend death.But death due to a single disease in a short time period,is difficult to absorb. Don’t lose hope, just remember we all are servants of Allah. For Him we will return. We shall do our best in the treatments, rest is to Allah.
This is what we have been preparing. Relax and give your confidence to us. Believe in our works. We will never let you down. Show your togetherness. Show the beautiful behaviours of our religion, share appropriate knowledge. Remind one another to be clean 🧼 #ކުޅުޖެހުންހުއްޓުވާ
Definitely a new strain. Looks more infective. Affecting the lungs more vigorously. Deteriorates faster.
Simple steps:
1. Reduce your contact bubble.
2. Mask up Maldives!
3. A clean hands.
Above all pray to Allah
#MaskupMaldives
I am happy that 99.99% of the Maldives understands the seriousness of this illness. I pray for the rest of 0.01% who mocks at my tweets & who says that “oh now everyone is an epidemiologist?”, may Allah guide them. Its

This is Jalaal in his 30s.
He had covid19 critical illness.
Was on ventilator.
He also had a pneumothorax & a tube was placed.
Today he is recovered Alhamdhulillah.
He came to give a token of appreciation to all the staffs.
But for us the token is him & his smily face.
Even now we r blaming each other.
Its out of our hands,the sooner v accept it,the sooner v will be able to control it.
When covid care increases, non-covid care will be hampered. For last 1.5 yrs, the work force is the same, they are even more stretched now, lets work together.
I personally would like to thank those who have been staying strictly at home.Its not easy, but it will definitely be worth it. To those few who r freely roaming around since “no apparent community spread”.After a few weeks,don’t tell that we didn’t warn you about

This is Dr. Faisham. He is a physician in IGMH. He works for the betterment of the people. He was one of the key clinician in the management of Influenza Pandemic few years back. He is also one of the experienced physician in Maldives. Take a moment to applause 👏 him. Respect ✊
The terrorist attack on former president Mr. Mohamed Nasheed is an attack to the Nation.
However much you hate one another, attempting to take life cannot be accepted. Haven’t we lost enough by natural means?
My prayers are with those who are injured.
Thank you

patients resumes at Farukolhufushi Isolation facility.
From Velidhoo Isolation Facility, 13 patients with

We see non-COVID patients as much as we can.
Our doctors, nurses, medical and non-medical staffs are stretched to the max.
Pray for a swift time ahead In Sha Allah.
Stats are difficult and heart breaking to watch. Care about the elderly and your relatives with chronic illnesses at home. Don’t over burden them with the
#COVID19
stats. Let us all together once again fight to control the spread. You & I, together can! In Sha Allah.
We said its not flu!
They said enough is enough!
We said it spreads via droplets!
They said so wear mask,y r u so arrogant?
We said ppl will die and it has no cure!
They said ppl need fun and joy to live!
We said its harder on us!
They said u r making up things about virus
She stayed with us for 135 days.
She had many difficulties in hospital,but she was a fighter.
She was recovering well,but ﷲ is the owner of the soul.
It is sad to hear the passing away of one of our dear patients early in the morning. May ﷲ bless her soul Jannatul Firdous.
100 deaths in COVID19.
Cases are not reducing, it's spreading like wild fire.
Contact tracing is nearly impossible.

Today i just broke the news to an 82 year old, that he has lung cancer.
He was calmly listening.
What he said was i will do ever my kids say.
And the children are so supportive.
Breaking bad news needs to be done appropriately. Everyone needs to know what their disease is.
Among those in ICU. A 26y old, 37y old & 56 y old is on ventilator.Non of them has received complete dose of vaccination.
Get vaccinated, still it will works In Sha Allah.

So happy to say that my viber community is now a viber verified community. Join and lets make medical advices and treatment options as simple as a piece of cake.
After 4 months of in hospital treatment. Today we are discharging one of the COVID19 patients.
Staffs/Nurses/Medical officers/Physiotherapists/Dieticians/Nephrologists/ENTsurgeons/Radiotechnicians/Anesthesiologists/Attendants/Radiologists/Cardiologists/Surgeons did their best.
This is it
It is hard on us and will be harder on the families & relatives
Those who don’t get symptoms will say “its nothing”
Those who get cured after being symptomatic will say “Its the worst disease ever”
Those who lose family members will say “did i give the infection?”.

At which stage of lock down ease did the cases start to fill in? May be we can look back to that stage and shift our attention to tighten the ease to that level.
#COVID19
status in Maldives is escalating at an alarming rate. We must work together to prevent more deaths.
New evidence shows the virus can be expelled through the air we breath out. So except through droplets, there is chance that the virus can be spread through breathing.

precautions are to be extended to cover your mouth with cloth masks.
