最高法院裁定,因COVID-19在治疗病人时死亡的医生,甚至在值勤期间死亡的医生,如果证据证明他们参与治疗,应得到赔偿。 The Supreme Court ruled that doctors who died from COVID-19 while treating patients, even off duty, should be compensated if evidence proves their involvement.

最高法院强调国家有义务支持在大流行病期间死亡的医生,强调社会绝不能辜负服务对象。 The Supreme Court emphasized the nation's duty to support doctors who died during the pandemic, stressing that society must not fail those who served. 法官PS Narasimha和R Mahadevan在保留判决的同时强调,如果有可信的证据证明他们积极参与COVID-19护理并死于病毒,那么即使不在公务期间治疗病人的医生也应享有保险索赔权。 While reserving judgment, Justices PS Narasimha and R Mahadevan highlighted that insurance claims should be honored for doctors treating patients even off official duty, provided there is credible evidence they were actively involved in COVID-19 care and died from the virus. 法院澄清说,它将制定指导原则,而不是审查个别案件,确保一线卫生工作者在政府保险计划下公平获得赔偿。 The court clarified it would set guiding principles, not review individual cases, ensuring fair access to compensation under the government’s insurance scheme for frontline health workers.
