Mangaluru, Jan 20: Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji, the chief pontiff of Pejawar Mutt, who was on a trip to Mantralayam in Andhra Pradesh suffered a back sprain due to a speed breaker on road while travelling in a car.

According to sources, the 86-year-old seer was on the way back from Mantralayam to Hyderabad on Friday when the incident took place. When the car reached Nandyal in Kurnool district, the driver failed to notice the speed breaker. The car jumped all of a sudden and this caused sprain at the seer’s back. 

After the first aid treatment, doctors found him fit to travel from Hyderabad to Udupi. The seer flew from Hyderabad to the Mangaluru International Airport and from there travelled to Udupi by car. He reached the mutt at around 10 am.

"It is a sprain. The seer seems to be fine. He has been advised bed rest for a week. The doctor hasn't prescribed any medication other than rest," said Pradeep Kumar Kalkura, president, DK Kannada Sahitya Parishad, who spoke to the seer after the incident.

Bengaluru, Apr 24: Karnataka is likely to start Convalescent Plasma Therapy for COVID-19 patients, who are critical, from tomorrow, Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar said here on on Friday. "We have already got approval for Convalescent Plasma Therapy.

There is no need for any special permission for it....when I was in BMC (Bangalore Medical College) I spoke to We may probably start it for the first patient from tomorrow itself. The donor has also agreed," Sudhakar said.

Speaking to reporters here, he said the convalescent Plasma Therapy was only for patients who are critical, in Intensive Care Units or on ventilator. According to the latest update, five COVID-19 patients are in ICUs in the state.

After attending video conferencing by Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan with health and medical education Ministers of all states, Sudhakar said the Minister lauded the good practices adopted by Karnataka in its fight against COVID-19 and asked to share the same with other states.

Responding to a question, he made it clear that COVID-19 is something that was not going to end by May 3 or by May end and like other viruses, would continue to exist. Sudhakar, who is leading the government's efforts against COVID-19 in Bengaluru and is in charge of the state war room, said many people are treating corona as a social stigma, which was not right.

There was no reason to get frightened about it as the infection can be cured, he said. "We have to take precautions so that it doesn't spread further....like fever, cold and cough- corona also can be cured... 97% people it can be cured, those with comorbidity and those above 60 years have to take some precautions. We have to bring in certain changes in our lifestyle and maintain social distancing," he added.
