Corona is a cause of Concern again as China is battling the sudden surge of Covid infections
China is reporting unprecedented rise in Covid cases. The numbers are frightening. China has reported 37 million infection in a single day. This current crisis with 37 million cases a day is so far the largest in the world.
The latest statistics estimates as many as 248 million people, nearly 18 per cent of the Chinese population is likely got infected due to the virus by the end of December and true to this estimate around 25 Cr individuals are reported to have been infected by the Virus. The predictions are that around 1 million Covid cases with around 5000 deaths per day is projected to come.. Experts predict the peak to come within a week which would last for one or two months
China being our neighbour need immediate attention as per the implementation of the Covid Protocols in the Country. Masks, Testing should be implemented as the precautionary measures.
India has suffered a lot due to Covid. The paucity of Oxygen, Hospitals should be taken care to combat any eventualities. India has opened up post Covid and the economy is coming back to tract.. The new upsurge in China is certainly a cause of concern.
The month end Christmas and the upcoming new year celebrations which in our country should be celebrated with precaution.
As the news trickle in, the surge of Corona is expanding in many countries but for India it is predicted that the wave would be mild because the Indian Vaccines are powerful enough and the population has developed the Immunity.
Testing, Tracking and the Treatment as a Policy should be implemented are war footing
