He said, \u201cThe pandemic has shown the world and India that we are still lacking in terms of health preparedness and we need to improve our investment and skillsets in order to be more prepared in the future. In Hyderabad, most of the new cases are coming from the containment zones and technology is playing an important role in tackling the pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The principal secretary mentioned that the reason the State decided to open up industries and the IT sector was because of the results of the predictive analysis data. The data gave inputs about the spread of pandemic till November and it showed that no new cases will come up in these areas and that is why the industry and IT sector were opened up without any restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn terms of ventilators as well, TWorks has launched a full-fledged ventilator at one-tenth of the price of ventilators available in the market.
