India orders tighter surveillance of 'black fungus' hitting coronavirus patients

"Black fungus" usually infects people whose immune system has been compromised -
India has been severely hit by the second wave of the novel Coronavirus and it’s disturbing to see how people are struggling to claim the old power they had over their lives. It’s sad that even the government and health care infrastructure have failed us in providing the much-needed relief. Now, Bollywood celebrities have come forward to help the needy and are doing their best to provide medical supplies. Just a while ago when Salman Khan came forward to help the frontline workers and chose to distribute refreshments and meals to them, people bashed him as they thought it’s more of a publicity stunt as his movie Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai was all set to hit the screens. Now, Salman’s movie has hit the theatres but he is still continuing to help the people who are struggling with the deadly pandemic. He took to his Instagram to share that he along with politicians Baba Siddique and Zeeshan Siddique has arranged 500 oxygen concentrators for COVID-19 patients. Sharing the picture, Salman wrote, "Our first lot of 500 oxygen concentrators have reached Mumbai. Covid positive patients who need these oxygen concentrators for an emergency situation can call us on 8451869785. Or you can tag/DM me. We will be giving these concentrators for free, pls return them once done using." View this post on Instagram After he shared the post, people started to tag him as a man with a golden heart and few Instagram users gave it back to the trolls who were just busy bashing his movies. © Instagram/Salman Khan © Instagram/Salman Khan © Instagram/Salman Khan Meanwhile, Salman’s latest offering Radhe has become one of the most-watched films on streaming platforms but it also became one of the worst-rated films on IMDb with ratings as low as 1.7. Along with Salman Khan, the Prabhudeva directorial also stars Disha Patani, Randeep Hooda, and Jackie Shroff in pivotal roles. The film can be viewed on ZEE5 on its pay-per-view service ZEEPlex. Zeeplex is also available on DTH platforms like Dish, D2H, Tata Sky, and Airtel Digital TV. Have you watched it? Let us know in the comments section below. View the full article
