In what would be a fitting example of serving the people right up to the very end, Dr. KK Aggarwal, who passed away of Covid-19 on Monday night, can be seen talking about helping people out of the Covid-19 crisis in what was his last video.

However, while quoting late Indian actor Raj Kapoor's words, the people's doctor said that "the show must go on". "Even I am suffering from COVID, I am having COVID pneumonia which is progressive. But even then remember Raj Kapoor's words 'The show must go on - Picture Abhi Baaki Hai'," said the doctor, who was known for his positive attitude during the Covid-19 crisis.

Dr. Aggarwal, who was a very popular figure in the medical world as well as on social media for imparting Covid related information to thousands of people in need, also had other pieces of advice for fellow doctors. 

While encouraging doctors to get people out of the Covid-19 crisis, he said, "We represent the collective consciousness of the society. Our job is to shift to jugadu OPD. Gather a hundred patients with similar symptoms and give them a joint consultation for 15 minutes. Time for one-to-one consultation has gone, we have to get people out of this crisis."

Unfortunately, these seem to be the parting words of the doctor who really led by example for people who had been left helpless in the pandemic at a time when the health care system of the country is close to a collapse.
