New Delhi: The figures of the rapidly increasing coronavirus infection in the country are now starting to scare. According to the data released by the Ministry of Health on Monday, 1,79,723 new cases of coronavirus infection have been reported in the country in 24 hours. In the same period, 146 people died due to corona. The active cases of Corona have increased to 7,23,619. At the same time, the daily positivity rate has gone up to 13.29 percent. At the same time, now the total figure of Omicron infection in the country has increased to 4033. In the midst of all this, experts are also expressing the apprehension that the third wave of the corona has arrived in some parts of the country including Delhi, Mumbai.
IIT Kanpur professor and mathematician Manind Agarwal has also talked about his study in this regard. He claims that by the end of January, up to 8 lakh cases of corona infection can be seen in India. Along with this, he has also told that when will the third wave of corona end in the country. He said, ‘The third wave of corona in Mumbai is expected to reach its peak in the middle of this month. It’s not too far now. The same goes for Delhi.
He says, ‘According to the current preliminary calculations, we express the apprehension that the third wave of corona in Delhi will reach its peak in the next month i.e. early February.’ He said, ‘As fast as the coronagraph of Delhi and Mumbai went up There is a possibility of them coming down equally fast. The graph of the whole country has just started rising. It should take another month to reach its peak and come down. The third wave of the pandemic is likely to end in India by mid-March.
On the lockdown, Manind Aggarwal says that in the first wave, a very strict lockdown had doubled the spread of corona. During the second wave, different states had adopted different strategies. The states which implemented mild or moderate lockdown properly also helped in reducing corona infection.
He says that strict lockdown always helps more but it results in complete loss of livelihood for many people. We always talk about covid deaths, but we should also talk about deaths due to this loss of livelihood at times.
