Coronavirus or Covid-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It is a viral disease that turned into a pandemic in early 2020. The first known case was recorded in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. Coronavirus has multiple variants such as Delta and Omicron, and its most common symptoms are fever, chills and sore throat.
The virus spreads through liquid particles when the infected person coughs, sneezes or breathes – it has a high multiplication rate. Therefore, the world had taken measures to quarantine or isolate those infected. While the disease can be mild and recoverable, those older or with underlying medical conditions are more likely to be adversely affected. The disease caused according to WHO estimates 3 million deaths in 2020.
All the best!
Mr. Lav Agrawal is very efficient person in his work.
I love lav Agrawal and Arvind Kejriwal Combo for India… IITans are doing something finally!!
I am sorry to the offended people. He spoke about tablighi people because he was asked by media persons. And let’s be honest, we needed that classification that time to prevent panic in the unaffected parts.
Lets be clear here: Tablighi people are not representative of a single community (In reality, several muslim groups themselves are critical of the TJ’s practices).
Hosting tourist visa holders to participate in an event is a criminal offence, hindu, christian or muslim.
There have been other gatherings all over the country towards the end of february as well. The crime that the Tablighi people did was to congregate, INSPITE of a widely announced Delhi government lockdown.
To add insult to injury, the behaviour of some the participants towards police and doctors and nurses was appalling. And that is an offence, whether you are Tablighi, Timothy or Trimurti.
This is not a religious problem, this is a criminal offence. Just like corona doesn’t see religion, law and order shouldn’t either.
Mr Luv Agarwal the the right person who is doing his job extremely well. May God Bless him.
Even I feel proud today for Mr.Agrawal as he is a marwari , we the same one. But above all, if I have to think, he is an Indian & doing really well. At this time, we all should remember only one thing that we should work together to face this national crisis. once again, proud of you, Mr.Agrawal
Mr Lav Agrawal is performing an excellent job as a spokesperson of health ministry. As a regional head of Maharaja Agrasen Intellectual Forum I feel very proud of Mr Agrawal.
Can we be proud of him as a co Indian rather than a person from same community or region or state? It’s absolutely essential we forget this Marwari or Aggarwal or south north business and not even speak anywhere anytime as long as we believe we are Indians. No offense meant here to anyone though!
Incidentally I have met him more than once In hyd While worked as commissioner of Medical and health Dept and interacted many times.
But I am honestly appreciating his skill and contribution as an IAS officer of all India service and doing best what he is supposed to so!
God bless him and all those who are working hard in this crisis times as public servants!
Thanks
Whether it is health emergency or financial or political emergency bureaucrats tend to echos their masters voice. In this case Mr Luv Agarwal doing his job. Nothing more, nothing less. He must be very jolly and generous, person. No doubt about that, but term him’ Upright’ just because in his briefings he gave emphasis on Tablighi’s numbers. I think, on his part, this was straight communalisation of pandemic. It was uncalled for at least from health ministry’s level. It was often sounds like, Mr, Luv Agarwal representing Mr. Amit Shah’s Home Ministry. not the Health Ministry. In every press briefing, his mentioning of Tablighi’s numbers separately gave fodder to hatemongers and there after Muslim bashing goes on uninterruptedly. Finally UN and WHO has to intervene, OIC send stern messages, sensing the backclash PM has to reiterate and evoke India’s secular values, then after this ‘Uprightness’ of Mr Agarwal vanished.
But above all, Nice profile. Once can sense personality from all angels.
Yet another puff piece from thePrint
He worked on ‘mental health’ issues as well? Was he behind the widely derided poster on Depression?
And does he wear a hair piece?
Really This officer worth one @this health crises in country like India Hat’s off to Him
Polite and true gentleman.gives very short and reliable information .Lav Agrawal is love all over India . Waiting for his news regarding covid_19
As learnt from this social media Sri Lav Agrawal had taken many assignment from abroad in the healthcare and health segment, and also in contact with WHO , if possible please share or make speech about the abroad countries remedial strategy they have taken for their people protection rather than the inputs of media.
Agarwal are by caste Marwari and Marwaris are known for their being very shrewed and astute all through India. They are found all corners of India even in deep NE and many such places but they have been the one who have drawn no attention from any one who could cause them harm. This man has the DNA right but he will have to wait till many years now for the Politicians never tolerate any one who become more than their boss, Examples are at large in India’s administration. But all the best for him. Details are very interesting and The Print deserves thanks.
Yes he is good at his job.
Absolutely an apt person for his job.
Today read about Christian Drosten, the German leadin the fight against Covid 19 n spanishnewspaper ABC. His principal mantra is, “Test, test, test”, they conduct 200,000 tests / week eith 97-99 % guarantee. They had 24,000 respirators in Jan & 40000 in April, the article in the Print lacks datas.
Ideal spokesperson indeed for this govt. The emphasis on Tablighi during his briefings speaks volumes about the upright officer. May his breed prosper under BJP government.
He is doing a stupendous job.
