” To Which Path Coronavirus is Leading India ? ” – June 10, 2020.

          Coronavirus which had its origin in China and made the world go into a spin is causing huge damage to the world in physical, economical and emotional terms.

            World over countries are struggling to contain COVID-19 due to lack of a vaccine. Lockdown continues still in many countries including India. About 70.86 lakh people have been affected because of the Coronavirus in the world today. About 4.6 lakh people died.

            As per latest statistics about 20.7 lakh people have been affected due to Coronavirus in America. About 1.10 lakh people died. Next in the list is Brazil. Italy, Spain, and England have witnessed a decline in Corona cases while India, Russia, and Brazil are witnessing an increase.

          In Brazil about 6.91 lakh coronavirus cases and 37000 deaths have been reported. As the cases and deaths grow by each day the government has controlled the release of statistics in this regard. Corona related websites have also been blocked.

          Among the 245 nations that are affected, India and Brazil remain the countries where the spread causes deep alarm. Per day increase in Corona cases in India is 4.3%  and in Brazil it is 4.4%. Russia’s perday increase is 2% ;  while in America it is 1.2 % ;  and in England  0.6%.

            India is literally in a shock due to the increasing rate of COVID-19 with per day cases numbering 10000. With about 2.66 lakh cases  reported  and more than 7400 deaths India’s struggle continues.

            When in March (when lockdown started)  India stood as an example to all nations of the world as the least affected. It comes as a great surprise to the countries now that India faces the wrath of Corona seriously.

          Medical experts say that containment of Corona is politically and economically possible only when government approaches the challenge transparently. Central and State Governments should intensify the efforts, failing which India will reach the 2nd spot in terms of affected nations next to America.

            THIS IS THE PROBLEM REQUIRING SERIOUS CONSIDERATION TODAY.
