The third wave of Covid-19 can hit India at the end of August and will not be entirely as the second, a top doctor has told the television news channel. “There will be a third third wave but that does not mean that it will be as high as or as strong as the second wave,” Dr. Samiran Panda, head of epidemiology and infectious diseases in the Indian Medical Research Council,
Panda Samiran also registered four things that could lead to the third wave of Covid-19, including the decline in immunity among the people of Koronavirus disease obtained in the first and second pandemic wave. “If it goes down, it can lead to the third wave,”
He also said that there might be a Coronavirus variant that can bypass the immunity obtained and if the new variant does not do it can circulate quickly in the population. The third wave of Covid-19 can also be caused by preterm easing Covid-19 curbs by states, said Panda.
Dr. Guleria said that some studies and models have been carried out to project the third wave trajectory that might be in different scenarios. “One such model of IIT shows that if all the limits are appointed and if the virus (variant) can also escape the immunity then the next wave can be greater than the second wave. If some limitations are stored and the virus also remains stable. Then the case will not be a lot And if we keep more limitations then the case will further reduce, “he said as quoted by the PTI news agency.
The Indian Medical Association said earlier this week the third wave was “inevitable and immediately happened” and urged the state government to ban big meetings because this could be an event “potential super spreader”.
“However, it is painful to note that in this important time, when everyone needs to work for third wave mitigation, in many parts of the country, both the government and the public are complacent and involved in mass meetings without participating in the Covid protocol.” Ima said in a. Statement on July 12.
