Use OSMF Mouth Opening Kit. Detect early, prevent early.

Ahmedabad, Gujarat [India]: This World Health Day, dentists and oncologists have gathered together to send out a powerful message — Be Proud Of Your Mouth. According to https://www.worldoralhealthday.org/, this message is the campaign theme for the years 2021-2023. Looking at the alarming report of growing cases of oral tumours and cancers, doctors want to inspire greater and better change by focusing on the paramount importance of oral health, one that seems innocuous but is rather deadly in nature.

According to dental oral oncosurgeon, restrictive mouth opening precedes most forms of oral cancer. Tobacco, pan masala, gutkha, khaini etc are known to be the chief culprits for this predicament. Avoiding tobacco has been a challenge even after huge price rises by the governments that have fallen on deaf ears. “But we are going to do something different this time. Because this time, the medical dental and healthcare professionals too will be involved in spreading the message on World Oral Health Day. Various events and campaigns are being held for the same. Apart from that, we are also organizing oral cancer screenings for people who’d visit”, said an activist for https://www.worldoralhealthday.org/. “We are going to use social media to the optimum to reach the people to help them quit tobacco, betel nuts etc. Wish we had a vaccine for this. Because this is, in all seriousness, a very avoidable disease”, said the activist.

Dr. Bharat Agravat’s OSMF Mouth Opening Kit that fully treats oral ulcerations, lichen planus, Xerostemia in mouth and restricted mouth opening is pushing to inspire the same change by focusing on the prime importance on maintaining oral health, right from maintaining clean teeth and gums to non-usage of any tobacco products of any variants. “We want you to live a healthy, disease-free life. But for that to happen, you have to follow our lead. See a doctor today.

Mumbai, Maharashtra [India] : Although it took a while, hopefully now Governments and Businesses around the world have come to realize that the coronavirus is not the same as the recession in 2008. While both significantly impacted the global economy, the drivers propelling the market crisis during Covid-19 are very different from what caused the recession in 2008.

As India and the world heads into a phase where the crisis wanes, policymakers have to increase the focus on the economic rebound for their respective countries. Tax policies are likely to play a significant role as the country steers its economy towards gradual recovery. Policies and measures taken now would have an impact on tax systems in the future.

Taxation is ‘a key ingredient in the social contract between citizens and the economy’ (Doing Business, 2018). In the sight of the pressing need of the hour to move towards economic recovery, governments will have to pay closer attention to how taxes are raised and spent.

Deloitte’s report ‘Recovery from the COVID-19 crisis: What role will tax policy play’, discusses that tax will play a key role in restoring the public finances of countries.While growth focus is imperative, it will be ideal to do this by offering support for healthy growth, including stimulus packages that will in turn help expand tax revenues.

EY Global Vice Chair – Tax, Kate Barton compellingly presents, “as the tax ecosystem continues to evolve, tax authorities are not only experiencing substantive change but also driving it”.

Tax and Fiscal Policy in Response to the Coronavirus Crisis, a report by OECD, outlines that ‘tax policy can contribute to covering the costs of the crisis’.

The case for increased tax revenue is understood but the timing and how it is done are critical as businesses and individuals are keen to get back up and running. Taxes cannot afford to be perceived as an added burden to pandemic-struck industries and businesses in the country that are exhausted from being cautious of the COVID-19 blade of uncertainty hanging over the head. Barton of EY wisely states, “eventually, governments will look to balance budget deficits and taxes will invariably rise – but timing those increases carefully will be crucial if governments are to drive growth”.

Simple is key

A recent Doing Business study reveals that firms in economies that score better on the study’s ease of paying taxes indicators tend to perceive both tax rates and tax administration as less of an obstacle to business.

In their article “The Effect of Corporate Taxes on Investment and Entrepreneurship” for the American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics, Djankov, et al. point out that “economies with simple, well-designed tax systems can boost businesses activity and, ultimately, investment and employment”. Rabah Arezki and Grégoire Rota-Graziosi put it quite simply by saying that “designing taxes that are simple to administer is the way to go” for the post-COVID era.

A supportive economy

Another pragmatic approach would be to plan for a sustainable source of increased tax revenue from growth through increased business activity, profits, and increased employment.

What are the potential sources that India and other developing nations can tap into to increase tax revenue? One solution need not fit all in this case. Specific groups of individuals and large corporations could be targeted through increased income tax rates and/or base-broadening measures, new minimum taxes, wealth taxes, and other indirect taxes such as Digital Services Taxes (DSTs).

Incentives to drive investments

During the pandemic, digital emerged to become imperative for the survival of organizations, and individuals. Tax policies that incentivize digital infrastructure and operations can assist in encouraging investment in these areas (Deloitte.)

“For governments looking to drive economic recovery after the pandemic, supporting such digital competitiveness will be key. One way is through foreign direct investment (FDI) in the digital economy”, Matthew Stephenson and Nivedita Sen, World Economic Forum.

Turning into an FDI hub while aiming for economic recovery will not be a small feat for India. Multiple aspects of the economy have to be conducive to encourage this. An all-around approach will be imperative to tap into this source of finance.

T for transparency

For the post-COVID economy and going ahead, tax authorities and tax policymakers will have to embrace transparency and accountability in a new way. The need and importance of tax have to be communicated with all taxpayers in the country clearly and regularly.

In short

Taxes will invariably rise but this is an opportunity to fix inconsistencies and inadequacies in the country’s tax system. Policymakers should be willing to identify and work on areas for improvement. It is important to ensure that chasing tax revenue does not cause further despondence in the economy. The post-COVID economy should foster a transparent and reliable tax ecosystem in India that has a clear grip on the bigger picture and be citizen-centric. Can that be achieved?

Mumbai, Maharashtra [India] : Mental health illness is an unaddressed issue in India. One in every five Indians suffers from some kind of mental health issue, according to World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates.

Covid-19 pandemic and the extended lockdown in 2020 only served to worsen the situation. Along with the concerns about physical health, came isolation and depression due to long periods of social disconnection during the extended lockdown, anxiety related to fear of losing jobs, and an increase in stress due to having to cope with the new normal.

Mental illnesses constitute one-sixth of all health-related disorders, and India accounted for nearly 15% of the global mental, neurological, and substance abuse disorder burden (Source: WHO). A National Mental Health Survey (NMHS) 2015-16 report further revealed that the treatment gap—the presence of mental illnesses and the proportion of people who had access to treatment—was over 70%.

These are alarming numbers and yet, most people want to stay quiet about it. The subject continues to be viewed under a lens of stigma. Most people suffering from mental health issues live in denial, and receive very little support from family and friends. It’s about time this changes.

As a brand whose purpose is to be a lifetime partner for the customers, and to lead with empathy, human touch, and innovation, Future Generali has taken a huge step in this direction by undertaking multiple initiatives to drive awareness and education around the issue of mental health.

The starting point was an introduction of a health insurance cover that includes mental health.  Acknowledging the prevalence of the mental health problem and its seriousness, the Insurance Regulatory Development Authority of India (IRDAI) has stated that insurers should keep mental illness at par with physical illness in regular health insurance coverage. Future Generali India Insurance has taken this a step further.

Ruchika Varma, CMO, Future Generali Insurance, says, “Most health insurance policies in the Indian market cover only hospitalisation treatment. However, in the context of mental health, most people start their treatment through consultations with medical practitioners on an outpatient department (OPD) consultation basis. Mental health experts tell us that less than 1% of the patients require hospitalisation. In order to be truly effective in taking care of mental illness treatment, policies that cover OPD treatment are the most desirable and the need of the hour. And this is exactly what our Health Total Policy offers.”

The all-new Future Generali Health Total insurance policy comes as a breath of fresh air in these challenging times. The cover understands the gravity of the problem and is a positive action, which will encourage more people to talk about mental illness as well as seek treatment for it. The policy covers in-patient hospitalization for mental illness. Notably, OPD treatment for mental illness is also covered under the superior and premiere plans of this policy.

The Future Generali Health Total insurance policy covers a sum up to Rs. 1 crore. People can avail a discount of about 15%. And if the sum insured has been exhausted, the amount for that year will be restored, subject to terms and conditions. With a vast network of 6,000+ hospitals that offer cashless choices, you no longer have to worry about arranging cash urgently at a time of need. The incorporation of mental health in the policy is a welcome move—prior to this coverage was offered based on factors such as data and cost.

Future Generali India Insurance has also undertaken other initiatives beyond the product. The brand started the conversation on mental health issues with its #HealthInsideOut campaign, which aims to de-stigmatize the issue by showing that it’s a common problem; create realization that some of these seemingly common-place symptoms could be signs of mental illness, and educate people that help is available, whether it’s medical or financial.

Approaching the delicate topic with a touch of light-heartedness, the brand showed inanimate objects such as a torn stress ball, a broken vase, a pillow, etc, complaining in a human voice about being treated harshly by their owners—a sign that mental health experts say could be an early symptom of underlying mental health issues.

Ruchika Varma adds, “During our multiple conversations with mental health experts and the affected parties we found that the first manifestation of mental health issues is inflicted on inanimate objects. Humanising such objects, our campaign tells a compelling story from their perspective, urging the audience to seek timely help and realize the gravity of these issues”

In order to get people to start taking their mental health as seriously as their physical health, Future Generali also created the Total Health Score, roping in over 25 celebrity fitness influencers including Shilpa Shetty and Mandira Bedi to participate in the test to assess their well-being.

Ruchika Varma adds, “We created the Total Health Score, a simple assessment tool which is available on our website and mobile app, with the help of practising therapists and counsellors, who understand the early signs of potential mental health issues. Once you complete the assessment, you are attributed a score that outlines your mental wellness quotient, and also indicated potential issues or mental wellness concerns that you may be going through at the moment.”

“Future Generali wants to lead the narrative on mental health and transform this into a movement. Going forward, we plan to roll out multiple initiatives around mental health and well-being, be it differentiated and innovative product propositions, services or partnerships to support customers,” adds Ruchika Varma. With influencers and campaigns that unabashedly talk about mental health, tools that help people analyze their mental and physical health status, and inclusive health insurance covers such as Total Health, Future Generali hopes to spark a change in the mindset of people and help them address the elephant in the room.

Chhattisgarh, [India] : With the launch of state wide COVID Vaccination Drive, the indigenous COVAXIN got gripped into controversies. The vaccine arrived without the completion of Phase 3 trials, hence Health Minister Shri TS Singhdeo raised an objection over it.

The frontline health workers are been vaccinated in Chhattisgarh, with the launch of Covidshield vaccination drive in state since January 2021. In the mid of this drive, another indigenous vaccine named Covaxin arrived in state. Responding over it, Health Minister Shri TS Singh Deo said that the Vaccines are still passing through the trials. Getting people vaccinated without phase 3 trials would be like innocent people are being used for vaccine trials.

He also raised concern over the forms being provided with the dose of vaccine & termed forms as trial material & asked for not getting vaccinated with the COVAXIN Doses in the state.

On the arrival of Covaxin in state he wrote a letter to Union Health Minister Dr. Harshavardhan mentioning that the state has received 37,760 doses of vaccine & since it hasn’t cleared Phase 3 trials hence CG is unable to use them. Also with the nearing expiry date the vaccines may get wasted. He requested Union Health Minister, not to send more vaccines for the state of Chhattisgarh before completion of phase 3 trials.

Mumbai, Maharashtra [India] : India earned its position among the limited countries capable of laser treatment for heart blockage With the remarkable progress being made in health services today, Health Minister Shri TS Singhdeo inaugurated the country’s first Excimer Laser Coronary Angioplasty (ELCA) at the Advanced Cardiac Institute in Raipur, for the treatment of heart disease. Today, on one hand when the whole world is engaged in battling COVID Pandemic through the Corona vaccine, Chhattisgarh is making remarkable achievements on this battle as well as on other health issues. Advance Cardiac Institute is a heart hospital based at Government Medical College, Raipur, Chhattisgarh, built by the state government for advanced treatment for heart diseases. Since its inception on 1 November 2017, the institute has led cardiac treatment in and around the state. The institute is one of the top cardiac hospitals in the country, that has implanted a pacemaker in a 102-year-old patient.

ACI is also known for the treatment of critical heart diseases, 3D electrophysiology and radiofrequency ablation (4 EPS), transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI), left atrial appendage closure (LAA device), and physiologic pacing. The state government bears all the expenses of free advanced cardiac treatment through the Dr. Khoobchand Baghel Health Assistance Scheme (DKBSSY), a scheme that is a simulation of National Health Services (NHS) from Great Britain.  Dr. Smit Srivastava, Head of the Department of Cardiology at the Advance Cardiac Institute, explaining about excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA), said that ECLA is the optimal treatment for hard blockages in the heart vessel. It uses excimer lasers, which use short-wavelength, high-energy ultraviolet (UV) light, non-open blockages, very old total blockages, re-blockage of pre-stents, and large blood clots in emergency angioplasty. Traditional balloon angioplasty uses compressive force to remove blockages, while high energy from the laser vaporizes the coronary blockage.

Health Minister Shri TS Singh Deo met the first patient, benefited from this treatment

Health Minister Shri TS Singh Deo arrived at the Advanced Cardiac Institute today and met the 46-year-old female patient of Mungeli district who has been benefited from this facility. Those who were admitted to ACI due to heart attacks and recurrent chest pains, their coronary angiography revealed a 90 percent blockage in the left first artery of the heart. Attempts to do angioplasty by traditional ballooning did not yield desirable results, as the blockage was not opening from the balloon due to fibrosis. Hence treating it with the use of a laser is the next best option. The blockage was successfully vaporized by high energy lasers and stents were placed to prevent future blockages. The patient is expected to be discharged from the hospital in the next 2 days of the treatment. After this, Health Minister Shri TS Singh Deo witnessed the entire process of the machine through experimentation on the apple and expressed heartfelt greetings to the officers and doctors of the department on this remarkable achievement.

Trying to eat healthy, stay off junk, and exercise regularly are all great starting points but the natural flora of our intestines has been compromised with our lifestyle.

Talking about the strains, Avnish adds, “We source ingredients from The United States. The 36 billion CFU Live Cultures in our product are 100x more than the probiotics found in Curd (Dahi) and 3x the amount found in probiotic health drinks available in the market. We use 3 strains of Lactobacillus, 2 Strains of Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus to ensure complete digestive and immune support, to healthy intestinal flora – this mighty tab helps you stay healthy, round the clock, leaving you with a #goodgutfeeling.”

It also contains chicory root (inulin) and apple pomace, which collectively help nourish good bacteria in the digestive system giving a complete 2-1 support compared to the regular Probiotics flooding the Indian shelf. Inulin, especially, acts as the prebiotic fiber that aids in the absorption of calcium and magnesium for stronger bones and helps with controlling the appetite and reducing inflammation in the gut.
