As per the predictions, the third wave of Covid-19 will impact children to a greater degree.
In order to prep to fight the third wave, Huma Qureshi has teamed up with Save the Children to set up a 30-bed pediatric ward in New Delhi.
Qureshi who is already setting up a 100-bed hospital in Tilak Nagar colony of Delhi said, "The battle is not yet over, with speculation rife about an anticipated third wave and its potential impact on our children, we need to be prepared. I am not waiting for the situation to get worse like the second wave. Together with Save the Children we are prepping already to add a 30- bed paediatric ward to this facility, dedicated for Delhi's children."
"And keeping children in mind, we want to create a ward that is child-friendly colours, wall painted with animals. And today, I joined the team in painting the wall. It was overwhelming to see it all come alive. And most of all, to experience the child in me," she said.
Huma and Save the Children's mission Breath of Life has received massive support to set up a 100-bed COVID facility in the city. Save the Children is setting a 12 beds ICU in Satara but much more needs to be done.
