Report : মালদা কলেজের শিক্ষক ও শিক্ষাকর্মীবন্ধুদের" আরো মানবিক "এর প্রয়াস আজ ১২ দিনে পড়ল ।গত চার-পাঁচ দিন ধরে আমরা লক্ষ্য করছি , মালদা শহর ও পুরাতন মালদা শহরে নতুন করে করোনা আক্রান্ত পরিবারের কোন খোঁজ আসছে না ।এমনকি করোনা আক্রান্ত কোন পরিবারের কাছ থেকে নতুন করে খাবার ও ঔষধ চেয়ে আমাদের কাছে আবেদন আসে নি,এমনকি কেউ আমাদের ফোন ও করে নি । গত ১২ দিনে ধরে মালদার দুই পুর এলাকায় করোনা আক্রান্ত পরিবারকে সর্বোচ্চ ১২ দিন থেকে শুরু করে সর্বনিম্ন তিন দিন খাবার সরবরাহ করেছি । এই বিষয়টি কয়েকদিন আগে কলেজ কর্তৃপক্ষের নজরে এনেছিলাম । কলেজ কর্তৃপক্ষের পরামর্শ অনুযায়ী আগামীকাল ৬ জুন থেকে সাময়িক ভাবে করোনা আক্রান্ত পরিবারে খাবার সরবরাহ বন্ধ রাখা হচ্ছে । পরবর্তিতে যদি করোনা সংক্রমণ বৃদ্ধি পায় ,সেই পরিস্থিতিতে কলেজের সমস্ত শিক্ষক ও শিক্ষাকর্মীবন্ধুদের সঙ্গে আলোচনা করে ফের করোনা আক্রান্ত পরিবারে খাবার পৌঁছনোর ব্যবস্থা করব। আগামীকাল থেকে খাবার সরবরাহ সাময়িক ভাবে বন্ধ থাকলেও, করোনা আক্রান্ত দুঃস্থ পরিবারকে ঔষধ , নেবুলাইজার ও অক্সিজেন সিলিন্ডার পৌঁছনোর কাজ চালু থাকবে । বর্তমানে কলেজের একটি অক্সিজেন সিলিন্ডার ও পাঁচটি নেবুলাইজার দিয়ে করোনা আক্রান্ত পরিবারকে পরিষেবা দেওয়া হচ্ছে । খুব শীঘ্রই "আরো মানবিক " ফান্ড থেকে আরো চারটি অক্সিজেন সিলিন্ডার কেনা হবে । যা কলেজের "স্বাস্থ্যবন্ধু" সেন্টারে থাকবে ।পাঁচটি অক্সিজেন সিলিন্ডারের মধ্যে দুইটি সর্বক্ষণের জন্য কলেজ পরিবারের জন্য কলেজেই মজুত রাখা হবে । বাকী তিনটি অক্সিজেন সিলিন্ডার দুই পুর এলাকার বাসিন্দাদের পরিষেবার জন্য রাখা হবে । কলেজের সমস্ত শিক্ষক ও শিক্ষাকর্মীবন্ধুদের ঐকান্তিক সহযোগিতা ছাড়া এই কাজ সুষ্ঠভাবে করা সম্ভব ছিল না ।সেই জন্য কলেজ পরিবারের সবাইকে অনেক অনেক ধন্যবাদ।

চিকিৎসকদের মাধ্যমে ইতিমধ্যেই আমরা সকলেই অবগত হয়েছি, যে কয়েক মাস পরই করোনার তৃতীয় ঢেউ আসছে ।করোনার তৃতীয় ঢেউ এর হাত থেকে রক্ষা পেতে হলে কি কি করণীয়, সে বিষয়ে মালদা মেডিক্যাল কলেজের সঙ্গে যৌথ ভাবে Goggle meet এর মাধ্যমে একটি সেমিনার করার উদ্যোগ নেওয়া হয়েছে । সেই সেমিনারে মালদা মেডিক্যাল কলেজের অধ্যক্ষ সহ মালদা মেডিক্যাল কলেজের দুইজন বিশিষ্ট চিকিৎসক থাকবেন । আমাদের অনুরোধে ইতিমধ্যেই সেমিনারের বিষয়ে মালদা মেডিক্যাল কলেজের অধ্যক্ষ ডাঃ পার্থ প্রতিম মুখোপাধ্যায় আমাদের কলেজের অধ্যক্ষ ডঃ মানস কুমার বৈদ্যের কাছে ইচ্ছা প্রকাশ করেছেন। মালদা মেডিক্যাল কলেজের অধ্যক্ষের সঙ্গে কথা বলে খুব শীঘ্রই সেমিনারের দিন ঘোষণা করা হবে ।
