[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Few cases of Hepatitis-A have been reported in Ganowpora area of South Kashmir’s Shopian district following which the health department has started taking sampling in the village.
Quoting a health official the news agency KNO reported that few cases of Hepatitis-A have been reported in Ganowpora area, who were tested outside the district.
He said the health department has taken cognizance and has started sampling in the area.
Meanwhile, locals alleged that the main reason behind the cases of Hepatitis-A is contaminated water as they are getting water without any filtration.
They also said they don’t have proper health care facilities available in the area, thereby forcing them to visit Pulwama even to get tests done.
Locals said that despite bringing the issue of filtration into the notice of the authorities several times, nothing has been done so far.
They appealed to the higher ups to look into the matter so that locals won’t suffer anymore.
Meanwhile, Chief Medical Officer Shopian Dr Arshid Tak said that a few cases of Hepatitis-A have been reported in Ganowpora area.

“We have started sampling in the area—both water and blood samples have been taken and sent to the laboratory,” he said, adding that they have asked people to take precautions and have provided them medicine as well.
He also urged people not to panic as Hepatitis-A is usually a short-term infection and does not become chronic.

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Program, J&K Bank presented an amount of Rs 14.40 Lacs to the premier healthcare institution of Jammu and Kashmir for procurement of Platelet/Therapeutic Plasma Apheresis kits for treatment of poor patients suffering from cancer and severe blood dysfunctional diseases.
JK Bank’s Divisional Head Kashmir, Syed Shafat Hussain on Wednesday handed over the cheque to Director SKIMS, Professor Parvez Koul
An official statement reads that in a function organized at SKIMS Soura, the Bank’s Divisional Head Kashmir, Syed Shafat Hussain today handed over the cheque to Director SKIMS, Professor Parvez Koul in presence of Head Paediatric Oncology Department Dr Javed Rasool and Head BU SKIMS, Syed Irfan besides other officials of SKIMS and the bank. Pertinently, the event coincided with the ‘International Childhood Cancer Day’, which is observed on 15th February all over the world to raise awareness about childhood cancer and honours all the children and families experiencing the effects of the disease.
Speaking on the occasion, Syed Shafat Hussain said, “Healthcare is critical for every society and with rise in the number of patients suffering from terminal ailments in J&K, we do feel the need to step in and do our bit. However, as a socially responsible institution, it is a very humble contribution from J&K Bank to SKIMS Srinagar for the patients who cannot afford these kits critical for their treatment.”
“Besides empowering the people financially, J&K Bank has been contributing to the society through its CSR activities meant for helping the economically weaker sections especially in health sector. We believe our little support would help many patients and alleviate the hardships of their families,” an official handout quoted Syed Shafaat Hussain as having said.
According to statement, Director SKIMS Srinagar thanked the Bank for the contribution and expressed hope that amid rising number of patients suffering from such dangerous diseases and dysfunctionalities, the Bank would increase its CSR spend towards healthcare as a large number of the patients hailing from weaker socio-economic background visit SKIMS Hospital for treatment in pediatric oncology every year who find it difficult to afford expensive Apheresis kits containing Platelet/Therapeutic Plasma. “With J&K Bank’s earlier support, we have been able to increase the survival rate among the children suffering from cancer and many of them are today present in this function to collectively thank J&K Bank for their help and support,” he added.
Pertinently, in the last year also, J&K Bank had contributed an amount of Rs. 7.85 lacs to SKIMS for procuring these kits which have been utilized for the treatment of hundreds of poor patients especially children.
