The new Covid-19 wave in India devastated the country's medical system, thousands of people died while waiting for medical or oxygen.

"Serious situation to the level of 'collapsing' campuses", Achintya Moulick, CEO was born in India of Carepoint Health, the hospital chain in New Jersey, who kept in touch with hospital leaders

Doctors in the Primary Community are trying to fill this spaces remotely through organized and unofficial channels.

These efforts can not create a big impact on the bad crisis in India, but they have helped thousands of desperate families.

Katyal came to the US in 1993 after completing studying in India.

"When we have a break here, it's unbearable to see what's going on in India," said Katyal, 54, said.

He happened to see a post on Facebook advertising for free remote healing platforms organized by the Indian American Doctor Association, in order to connect abroad volunteers to NCOV-infected patients at the level.

For several weeks, Katyal contacted the Garg family on the platform and via email, WhatsApp.

The family nightmare began on the day she was a happy opportunity, when the second son was born.

In the next few days, the girl's husband, husband and 4-year-old son were infected with NCOV.

Find a doctor to show how to recover is a challenge.

"Everyone is overloaded and experienced doctors are rarely free time," the husband said.

In the early days of NCOV infection, the father-in-laws listened to conflicting tips from friends and others who were not doctors, they shared tips from the way they fought with Covid-19 themselves.

Indian doctors have very little time to talk deeply with patient people on how to track and care for the best.

Saiyed witnessed the benefits of relaxing licensing rules so that doctors in his hospital could consult across the United States.

Some doctors "are reluctant to violate the rules and regulations. They hope the government will not be convened because it is an emergency situation," Saiyed said.

Katyal cannot prescribe the drug for the Garg family.

During their fourth zoom in early this month, Jatin Garg, a family member living in Texas, updated to Katyal about the status of the Gard house in New Delhi.

Katyal pays attention to the patient's breathing and ability to speak, ask about oxygen concentrations and time of fever.

Online consultation sessions began by volunteer doctors and patients logged into zoom, before organizers connect people speaking in the same language together and let them chat separately.

Sudhakar Jonnalagadda, chairman of the Indian American doctor, said volunteers like Katyal are trying to reduce pressure on hospitals.

"Most patients with mild illness. They feared that he was about to die," Jonnalagadda said.

At the fifth zoom session, Jatin Garg's younger brother appeared on zoom without oxygen, fresh after a good night's sleep.

"I really want to ask this question: Has my father escaped the danger?", Jatin Garg asked.

"With Covid-19, I will be very frank: If someone says they can predict exactly, they don't tell the truth," Katyal answered.

His answer was true.

Although the patient looked fine, Katyal was concerned that the situation could deteriorate quickly and urged him to go to the hospital to get remdesivir, the drug helps to shorten the recovery time.

Effective treatments.

"Imagine your scene to the doctor's office, the doctor only steps out of the clinic for a few minutes and doesn't answer any of your questions," Jatin Garg said.
