The World Health Organization has also recognized India's health workers and medical system as iron.
More than 3500 covid labs

Due to which not only did the number of AIIMS increase in the country, but in the Corona period itself, between the limited time and resources for the identification of the virus, more than 3500 labs, including government and private, have been opened for covid testing. Apart from this, recently, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya launched the Mobile Biosafety-03 Lab on Wednesday. This Mobile Biosafety-03 Lab also has the facility of Genome Sequencing. BSL-03 Lab is capable of detecting viral infections. Through this, it will be convenient to prevent infections in the future.
India's health sector against Corona

This became possible because of the Ministry of Health and all the doctors and nurses of the country who were engaged in saving us safely from Corona for 24 hours. But all this was not possible in a day.
In fact, today we have a vast network of about two lakh government primary health centers, 750 district hospitals and 550 medical colleges in our country. The number of doctors and other health workers has increased by 15 to 20 times. There is a worldwide demand for trained doctors and nurses in India. In Britain, America, Canada and many West Asian countries, Indians are the backbone of the health system. That is, it can be said that India has made remarkable progress in the field of health. This was the reason that the way in which many predictions were made about India during the Corona period, everything remained in vain.

India acted with restraint in this hour of crisis.
Under self-reliant Bharat, India not only prepared the vaccine but also provided the country with oxygen plants, hospitals, medicines, equipment and other essential items. India is building 150,000 health and wellness centers to provide a wide range of primary health services. In February 2018, the Government of India announced the creation of 1,50,000 health and wellness centers by replacing the existing sub-centres and primary health centres.

Doctors will also now be able to treat their patients properly because even the oldest records of the patient can be kept in digital form. Due to the incorporation of such innovations, India has made great strides in the health sector.
