Bengaluru, Apr 16: Central public sector undertaking HAL, which specializes in manufacture of helicopters and aircrafts, produced and handed over more than 300 Aerosol boxes to various state governments like Karnataka, UP, Maharashtra, AP, Telangana and Kerala to be used in hospitals in the fight against coronavirus epidemic.

The transparent box acts as an insulator between the doctor and the patient and can significantly reduce the possibility of Covid-19 transmission to doctors and medical staff treating corona patients.

 

“The results are encouraging and we can cater to more hospitals and states in this hour of need," says R Madhavan, CMD, HAL.

The boxes are produced at various divisions of HAL across the country.

In Uttar Pradesh, 30 Aerosol boxes produced by the Kanpur division were handed over to Awanish Kumar Awasthi, ACS (Home) by Apurba Roy, GM, Transport Aircraft Division, Kanpur and Rakesh Mishra, Chief of Projects, Accessories Division, Lucknow in the presence of Amit Mohan Prasad (Principal Secretary, Health).

The HAL management has already announced contribution of Rs 26.25 crore to PM-CARES fund.

    Good creative initiative.

    Now time to improvise it. Try to give more comfort to the already strained front line workers. Like try to have some air conditioning so that the workers will be able to withstand the heat generated by the coveralls they are wearing. This increases their efficiency.

    This idea is only indicative. Try improvising it continuously till it becomes a state of art item which can even be exported.
