Infections of the past thirty years have started in one place and in one family.
They are often highly contagious before the onset of symptoms, and difficult
to stop spreading. Emerging infections are spread due to interlocking medical-
epidemiological and political reason. The governments have no strategies in place
to prevent pandemics but expect patients to use common sense on their own
behalf and manage them at home. Until now, no one has come forward to help
us develop strategies to educate people how to identify and prevent the spread
of infection to their families and communities. Nobody plans for an actual crisis
partly because it is too scary and hence paralyzing to think about. Most health
professionals say they are not trained, paid and assume its someone else’s job,
except that it has turned out to be nobody’s job. This situation is not static. While
we sit paralyzed, superbugs are evolving and emerging infections are spreading, all
over the world before we even know it exists. Scientists are making rapid progress
to but even a muchmore rapid response must still rely on patients coming forward
to say they have a symptom. We know patients with serious symptoms often avoid
seeking help fromdoctors because they do not want their fears confirmed. We can
conquer this problem, using a simple tool that does not require the top-to-bottom
reform of public health infrastructures. Our innovation “Dr MAYA”, a mobile phone
application monitoring system will identify clusters of infections and help prevent
spreading emerging infections. Out tool is a boon for healthcare professionals,
because this will not reduce epidemics but also protect them. Doctors can offer
the best healthcare 24/7, 365 days and spend more time at home with family and
friends. So how does it work in practice?
Biography
Author, doctor, inventor and publisher who worked in acute as
staff and associate specialist in acute and intensive paediatric
care in internationally respected hospitals in the UK. Special in-
terest “Spreading Superbugs & Emerging Infections”. In 2000,
he was appointed to teach nurses to manage infection in pilot
nurse-led practice. He raised concern in 2004, about wrong do-
ings and antibiotic abuse and the quality of care offered using
protocols by nurse prescribers and practitioners. To protect
fellow human for un-ethical medical practice, he collected and
compiled a list of common symptoms and developed a simple
tool “Maya” to help patients differentiate “Well from Non-Well”.
His created “Dr Maya” using Internet and communication tech-
nology to reduce the cultural dependency, cost, medical errors,
delay in diagnosis, treatment and antibiotic abuse. His mission
is to reduce cross infections with treatment resistant infections
by helping doctors initially identify infected individual and isolate
them to protect healthcare workers and pandemics.
