Belagavi, Nov 16: The protest by private doctors near the Suvarna Soudha in Belagavi entered the fourth day on Thursday.

Members of a few district units of the Indian Medical Association participated in a relay hunger strike, demanding that the government defer tabling the amendments to the Karnataka Private Medical Establishments Act.

The doctors are demanding removal of clauses such as setting up a grievance redressal committee at the district level against erring doctors, the government fixing fees for various services and penalty and jail term for wilful disservice.

 This has thrown health care services into disarray across Karnataka, especially Belagavi.

Private clinics and nursing homes in the city downed shutters in solidarity with the protest.

However, patients had to suffer; while some decided to postpone their visit to their doctor, others chose to go to the government hospitals.

Chamarajanagar, Feb 7: Health authorities in Karnataka have constituted a mobile team of doctors to monitor villages sharing a border with Kerala districts.

Strong vigil is being maintained by the health authorities in Karnataka after three confirmed cases of Coronavirus was detected in Kerala.

Kerala Health Minister KK Shailaja on Wednesday had informed that three positive cases of Coronavirus were found in the state and other suspects were being monitored in isolation.

The virus originated in Wuhan in December and has since then spread to various parts around the world.

China has imposed quarantine and travel restrictions, affecting the movement of 56 million people in more than a dozen cities, amid fears that the transmission rate will accelerate.
