Akshay
Kumar
has
extended
his
support
to
Nashik's
frontline
workers.
On
May
15,
the
Khiladi
Kumar
donated
1000
smart
watches
to
Mumbai
Police
that
helps
in
tracking
the
symptoms
of
deadly
COVID-19.
Today,
the
Padman
actor
provided
500
smart
watches
to
the
Nashik
police,
after
COVID-19
positive
cases
rise
in
the
city.
Nashik's
police
commissioner
Vishwas
Nangare
Patil
confirmed
the
news
on
May
16
(Saturday).
He
thanked
Akshay
Kumar
by
saying,
"We
are
grateful
to
Mr
Kumar
for
donating
500
smartwatches,
which
will
be
utilised
by
our
frontline
workers
who
are
above
45
years
of
age.
The
data
of
their
body
temperature,
heart
rate
and
blood
pressure
will
be
collected
on
the
COVID-19
dashboard,
which
is
centrally
monitored
by
the
police
force.
The
health
and
wellness
dashboards,
which
records
BMI
and
footsteps
will
also
be
tracked
constantly."
For
those
who
are
unversed,
the
bands
will
be
available
in
India
in
phases.
Before
making
it
available
for
the
general
public,
the
wrist
bands
will
be
given
to
an
immediate
basis
to
frontline
workers.
After
all,
the
situations
are
getting
worse
in
Maharashtra.
The
state
has
reported
more
than
29,000
COVID-19
positive
cases.
Mumbai
has
around
17,600
positive
cases
while
Nashik
has
1238
positive
patients.
Meanwhile,
Akshay
Kumar
is
the
brand
ambassador
of
a
leading
health
brand,
who
announced
a
breakthrough
in
early
COVID-19
detection
through
its
wrist
band,
with
sensors
to
detect
the
symptoms
of
the
deadly
Coronavirus.
Mumbai
Police
has
become
the
first
organization
in
the
world,
who
are
enabled
to
remotely
track
and
manage
the
health
of
its
personnel
with
preventive
health
platforms.
Kudos
Akki
for
your
amazing
work!

supposed
to

the
lockdown,
it
