Even her neighbours can be spotted holding similar placards for her.

She can be seen standing all through and thanking everyone for the honour. Dr Uma Madhusudhan is treating patients at the South Windsor Hospital in the US. It is not known since when she is in the US and treating the patients there. However, people can be seen giving her huge respect for the work she has done.

Doctors around the world are receiving a huge appreciation for the kind of work they have done to treat coronavirus patients. Since it is a highly contagious virus, the first line of health workers like doctors is at the highest risk of catching the virus. In fact, there are many doctors around the world who have been infected while treating the patients and have died because of it. The authorities around the world are working to provide PPE kits to the doctors and other health workers to ensure their safety. However, there are not enough kits available, which is leaving the doctors and health workers exposed to the virus.

Back India, the government has imposed a complete lockdown to stop the spread of the virus. Only people in certain jobs are allowed to work and come out of their homes with the necessary permission. The current lockdown will be lifted on 3rd May but it may get extended depending on the situation. Earlier, the government increased the lockdown by two weeks to control the situation in the country.
