COVID 2.0 URGENT APPEAL FROM MOBILE CRECHES
Children will bear the scars of the pandemic for years to come – help to protect them from this catastrophe!
India has surpassed 20 million mark (4 May) in COVID cases since the lethal second wave hit us. The brutality of this wave is evident as cities and systems crumble to provide urgent health support to the desperate and dying people. The mutant virus is infecting young children and
adolescents rapidly, more than double caseload, as compared to the pandemic in 2020 (IndiaSpend 2021). India will have the highest number of deaths among children under 5 years, and the highest number of maternal deaths in South Asia in 2020 (UNICEF 2021). Children need immediate protection against the virus. They need support to build sufficient immunity against risks for infection. Children’s social and emotional wellbeing must be nurtured as parents and adults around them experience high stress over an uncertain future through this insurmountable crisis.
The future of India’s COVID generation must be protected at all costs.
Mobile Creches (MC) has stepped up its COVID 2.0 Relief Response plans.
The highest responsibility is to save lives. There is an equal responsibility to fight back the spread of the virus through preventive measures.
Additionally there are children’s ongoing health, nutrition, education, protection, and care needs that must be met as their access to essential services is fully disrupted. Or parents are infected leaving the burden on siblings to look out for each other. MC was diligent in its COVID-19 relief response and builds upon this experience to support some of the most vulnerable migrant children and their families across urban cities.
In April 2021 MC distributed dry rations to all children; identified malnourished children for special support, and mapped the immediate needs of young children and women that we can meet through community linkages. We are supporting ~10,000 families with young children across seven cities. But this was before the devastating conditions seized us in Delhi and other cities.
In a pandemic of such gigantic proportions the urgency is to ramp up health infrastructure and support frontline health workers to meet the expected peak caseload across the country. At the same time it is vital for organisations like MC to remain connected with poor families, excluded from public welfare systems, to ensure they have the information and the means to remain resilient against the infection, to seek and receive the help they need, at this hour.
​
MC’s COVID 2.0 Relief Response will:
-
Respond to emergency requests for oxygen cylinders, concentrators, hospital beds, plasma donors, medicines etc. through linkages with public, private, and community provisions
-
Run community relief through COVID awareness, monthly nutrition for children, psychosocial help, immunization linkages, early education modules, and facilitate vaccination camps at labour camps and urban slums.
-
Distribute COVID management kits comprising of oxymeters, thermometers, masks, and sanitisers. Bundled with awareness about their use. So that entire families are protected.
