💨 Abstract

In Chennai, a government oncologist was brutally attacked by a patient's son over treatment grievances. The incident led to a statewide protest by doctors demanding safety for medical professionals. In response, the Tamil Nadu government has introduced a triage tag system for patients based on urgency, and temporary identity cards for attendants. The oncologist, Balaji, is recovering well and expected to be moved out of the ICU today.
