Kolkata on The Year 2022 taught us how to deal with various diseases in the best possible manner
Corona infection was ongoing since the year 2020 with a changing trend that can be counted on the mutation of the virus, lack of following covid protocols, opening up of offices & schools, and avoiding vaccination. On the other hand, dengue had a rise due to a lack of proper maintenance of the surroundings, as the lockdown was lifted people started moving out hence being exposed to various places where dengue mosquitoes were spread. Our climatic condition is also an added factor for the breeding ground for mosquitoes and the spread of dengue. Respiratory diseases are mostly owing to pollution and some lifestyle factors such as smoking.
The most visible symptoms of corona seen this year were headache, mild fever, cough & cold, and stomach problems. Whereas, respiratory diseases mostly show signs of fever with persistent cough & cold and prolonged fever was the sign of dengue.
However diarrheal diseases in Kolkata were absent owing to the lockdown and avoidance of binge eating street food can be the main reason but in April-June people suffered from diarrhea due to a reduction in the number of cases of corona that resumed the consumption of street food again.
Treatment of any disease is always case-oriented and it can be symptomatic and supportive. Covid needs protective treatment, symptomatic and watching the complications is very important in every respiratory disease. Symptomatic management is best suited for dengue. The year 2022 noticed corona behaving like a true viral infection. While for diarrhea, ORS is the best help for all age groups.

Dr Pallab Chatterjee relived a 4 year old of a chronic cough by removing a carcass of cockroach through Bronchoscopy in EiI Samay & Telegraph.
A carcass of cockroach was removed from the lungs of a 4 year old boy from Rajarghat by Bronchoscopy performed by Dr. Pallab Chatterjee – Consultant Paediatrician and expert in respiratory medicine.
Doctor said “I can only summarise that he put a cockroach egg in his mouth. Had it reached his stomach it would have passed out through his stool. But somehow it got into his breathing tube and germinated there, leading to the chronic cough.”
