The Return of COVID-19 🦠 : What It Means for Healthcare and Medical Tourism Stakeholders: -

As of mid-2025, new COVID-19 variants—NB.1.8.1, LF.7, and JN.1—have triggered a mild resurgence in cases across parts of India and Asia. While health authorities are managing the situation as endemic—comparable to seasonal flu—it is crucial for healthcare and medical tourism stakeholders to stay vigilant, agile, and future-ready.

1. Strengthening Public Health Infrastructure: -
Hospitals across India are reinforcing their COVID preparedness by establishing dedicated screening zones, isolation wards, and rapid-response systems. These steps are vital not only for local patients but also for international medical tourists, who increasingly prioritize safety, hygiene, and protocol transparency when selecting treatment destinations.

2. Rise of Digital Health and Telemedicine: -
COVID-19 has permanently accelerated the shift toward telehealth and digital healthcare. From remote consultations to AI-powered diagnostics, digital platforms now serve as the front door for many international patients.
This digital transformation:
Facilitates pre-treatment consultations and second opinions,
Eases cross-border care coordination, and
Enables remote post-treatment follow-ups.
Hospitals that invest in these digital capabilities are more likely to foster patient trust and global engagement.

3. Medical Tourism: Opportunities Amid Shifting Expectations: -
India remains a top-tier destination for medical tourism, offering world-class treatment at competitive costs. However, today’s patients demand more than affordability—they seek trust, transparency, and a proactive approach to safety.

Hospitals that clearly communicate their infection control protocols and offer real-time updates build confidence and differentiate themselves in a crowded market.

4. Operational Resilience and Supply Chain Management: -
Even a mild wave is a sharp reminder of the need for robust supply chains. The availability of:
PPE and test kits,
Antiviral medications and immunity boosters,
And contingency planning for sudden patient surges..are all critical—not just for domestic operations, but to assure international patients of India’s ongoing capability and preparedness.

Final Thoughts: Continuous Readiness Is Key: --
Though the current resurgence is manageable, it underlines an important truth: preparedness must be ongoing. For healthcare and medical tourism stakeholders, the path forward includes:

✅ Ensuring safe and responsive infrastructure,
✅ Scaling digital engagement and telemedicine, and
✅ Strengthening resilience with innovation and empathy.

India’s enduring edge in medical tourism lies not only in clinical excellence but also in how confidently, transparently, and compassionately it responds to global health uncertainties.

to my Colleagues from and all over the .

On 25 May, Africa Day commemorates the historic day in 1963, when African nations came together to form the Organisation of African Unity, the precursor to the African Union (AU). It is a day to celebrate the many successes and progress made throughout the continent while recognising each nation's challenges.

The African Union today strives to represent a vibrant continent of 1.2 Billion people. Today is a day to celebrate how far Africa has come against the odds and to recognise how much more needs to be done to ensure that all Africans can live healthy, happy lives.

The number-one killer in this country is heart disease. And the majority of people suffer their first major heart attack on Monday morning between eight and nine. That is the time, of course, when most people are getting ready to go to jobs that they don’t like, jobs that are making them sick.

Take care of yourself: When you don't sleep, eat crap, don't exercise, and are living off adrenaline for too long, your performance suffers.

In the USA, one out of every 5 doctors is an Indian.
A fascinating blend of cultures and skills is seen in the United States’ healthcare sector, courtesy of the diversified influx of medical professionals from around the world. A significant percentage of this medical workforce hails from India.
Indian physicians constitute about 5.9% of all practicing doctors in the USA.
Approximately 20% of all International Medical Graduates in the USA are from India. Indian physicians constitute the highest number of internal medicine specialists (11%) in the USA. Indian-trained doctors represent the largest body of immigrant health professionals in the USA.
However, there are many highly skilled Indian doctors in the United States who have made significant contributions to the medical field. Here are a few notable Indian-American doctors:
1. Dr. Sanjay Gupta is a neurosurgeon, medical journalist, and chief medical correspondent for CNN.
2. Dr. Atul Gawande is a surgeon, writer, and public health researcher who is a professor at Harvard Medical School and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
3. Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee is an oncologist, researcher, and author who is a professor of medicine at Columbia University and a staff physician at Columbia University Medical Center.
4. Dr. Deepak Chopra is a physician, writer, and speaker who is known for his integrative approach to medicine.
5. Dr. Vivek Murthy was a physician and public health advocate who served as the 19th Surgeon General of the United States.
These are just a few examples of accomplished Indian-American doctors, and there are many others who have made significant contributions to the field of medicine.
They obey the laws, and they are the best citizens of the USA.
It's in our culture, our tradition our ancestors taught us.
That's making Indians superior in the humanitarian aspect.

Well said Sir Navneet Bali Knowledge and expertise must be shared in the moment to be relevant. Expertise sharing happens when information flows throughout the organization, cross-functionally and across locations and it creates a culture of learning for all.

You are at the Equator. 0.0" is a sign at Hikers Arena in Nanyuki, Kenya. Nanyuki is a market town in Laikipia County, Kenya, located just north of the equator at 0° 01' North, 37° 04' East. The equator also passes through Timboroa and Maseno in Kenya.

Nanyuki's name comes from the Maasai phrase “Enkare Nanyoikie,” which means "the river of blood". This is because the Nanyuki River turns red during rainy seasons due to soil erosion.

Equator marker, though the line is imaginary, it is always a worthy stopover - stand on the equator line, freeze the moment, observe the coreolis effect demo (at a fee), and proceed with your journey.

The Equator passes through 13 countries: Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Sao Tome & Principe, Gabon, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Somalia, Maldives, Indonesia and Kiribati.

It's interesting to switch between the two halves of the world, and I was not left behind either 📸.
