AHMEDABAD: A day after the list of 40-plus doctors from the city working at private clinics and hospitals who have tested positive for Covid-19 made the rounds on social media,
the Ahmedabad Medical Association (
AMA) and
Indian Medical Association (
IMA) started drawing up a list with authentic information and specialities.
“The purpose of the exercise is to prevent misinformation,” said a senior AMA official.
The IMA officials pointed out that the rumours of the death of Dr Kamlesh Tailor due to Covid-19 on Wednesday night were baseless.
His name featured among those of a few other doctors who have succumbed to the infection in the messages on social media. “Dr Kamlesh Tailor is under hospitalization and is recovering,” said the official.
