RAMBAN,01 JULY,2021-<\/strong><\/div>\n
Preventing spread of Covid to save the lives of people including his own and his family members has been top most priority of Imtiaz Ahmed Sofi,37, a Laboratory Technician (NHM) at Sub-Division Hospital, Banihal.<\/div>\n
Known for his perfectionist nature, he is a die-hard and a dedicated Corona Health Warrior and is among those few who realize the dangers of spread of Covid-19 and its socio-economic consequences. He keeps motivating the people to take vaccination and adopt covid appropriated behavior by understanding the gravity of the situation.<\/div>\n
Recruited in 2007, Imtiaz was deputed on Covid duty from April 2020 and since then he has been conducting Covid Sampling, besides his own job in the clinical laboratory.<\/div>\n
After reaching the hospital at 9.30 in the morning he works till 4 in the evening or till the task of sampling is over, which does in the hospital or\u00a0 door to door. The Covid sampling and sensitization of the people about the preventive measures goes side by side full week, without any holiday even on Sundays or festivals. Imtiaz claims that he has not availed even a single leave this year so far. This Eid on May 13 he returned to Covid duty just after offering the namaz.<\/div>\n
\u201dThe Covid duty is a serious and engrossing task. You cannot drink water, have lunch, offer Namaz or attend the phone call in a PPE kit till evening. It is difficult to put it on and put it off again and again,\u201d said Imtiaz without any remorse.\u00a0 Sometimes you forget everything, even your family and children, he said.<\/div>\n
Imtiaz recalls many incidents when he missed emergency calls from his\u00a0 wife. \u201cOne day my 2 year old son fell seriously ill and his mother kept on calling me which I couldn\u2019t attend as I had switched off my cell phone after putting on my PPE kit. By the evening when I returned home she had returned from Srinagar Hospital after getting him examined by a pediatrician,\u201d he recalled.<\/div>\n
\u00a0He recalled that\u00a0 \u00a0during Ramadan month he felt giddy and was about to collapse due to scorching heat and thirst yet he didn\u2019t break his fast.<\/div>\n
Imtiaz is the eldest among six siblings including 3 sisters, while his mother is a chronic Arthritis patient and father a diabetic.<\/div>\n
\u201cI try to do justice with my job and do it perfectly and consider that identifying Covid positive patients timely would not only save others in my area, but also me and my family,\u201dhe said.<\/div>\n
On the performance and contribution of Imtiaz,\u00a0 BMO, Banihal, Dr. Rabia Khan said that he is not only skilful and a keen learner. but also punctual, dedicated and hard working.<\/div>\n
