Covid-19 returns: Do not panic, keep the masks on, say health experts

As terrifying images evoking the height of the COVID-19 outbreak circulate on social media, worries about the next move increase. People are all too aware of how COVID-19 spreads and the severe damage it can cause. The Indian government is also on alert due to the rising COVID cases in China that have crowded its hospitals, but specialists have warned everyone not to panic but continue to wear masks.

The Health Ministry and INSACOG are closely monitoring the issue. To identify and contain COVID-19 outbreaks, the ministry has advocated for the early discovery, isolation, testing, and prompt management of suspected and confirmed patients.

Former Director of Delhi AIIMS, Dr Randeep Guleria said that that India’s situation was much better compared to that of China because India’s vaccination strategy has been a successful one. He also said that the most people in the high-risk group have been administered booster doses and natural infection has happened.

Dr Guleria further said that cases were not rising anywhere in India but citizens need to stay vigilant. He says, proper surveillance was needed so that if cases rose anywhere, India can pick it up at the earliest and start conducting test, so that it can be known if new variant has spread in India.

Adar Poonawalla, the director general of Serum Insitute of India, said that there was no cause to fear given the country’s good vaccination rate.

According to Subramanian Swaminathan, Director of Gleneagles Health, India is likely doing better than before in the fight against COVID. There are many advantages to be gained, at least for the time being. In general, one can conclude that India is in a far better situation than we ever were with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic, despite a few worries India has and potential weak spots.

Dr VK Paul, a member of the NITI Aayog’s health committee, said that only 27 to 28 per cent of individuals have taken a booster dose. He has urged the people to exercise caution, especially the elderly. Everyone must follow the precaution dose guidelines, he said.

In addition, he recommended people to wear masks in crowded areas, whether indoors or out. Dr Paul also said that this is especially crucial for those who have comorbid conditions or are older.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a veiled dig at Rahul Gandhi on Thursday. He was addressing an election rally in Gujarat’s Anand where PM Modi said, Congress is dying here and Pakistanis are crying. He further added that Pakistani leaders want to make shehzada of Congress the prime minister of India.

He said everyone should look at the coincidence that today the Congress is getting weak in India and Pakistani leaders at the same time are praying for the grand old party. PM Modi said Pakistan is eager to make the prince the Prime Minister and everyone knows that the Congress is a fan of Pakistan. The prime minister further added that the partnership between Pakistan and Congress has now been completely exposed.

A few days earlier Pakistani leader Chaudhary Fawad Hussain had shared a video on X which featured Rahul Gandhi, in which the Congress leader is seen targetting the BJP and PM Modi. In the video shared by the former Pakistan minister, rahul Gandhi can be seen attacking the BJP government over the invitees at Ram Mandir’s Pran Pratishtha ceremony.

The edited video shows Rahul Gandhi speaking about the Ram Mandir’s inauguration and charging the BJP government of sidelining the interests of the poor and youth.  PM Modi further added at the Anand rally that Congress Shahzade is dancing around with the Constitution on their foreheads. But for 75 years, this did not apply to all parts of Hindustan. The Constitution was not applicable in Kashmir, where Article 370 was like a wall that the BJP government had demolished.

The Prime Minister said it is his guarantee that he will work 24×7 to make India a developed country by 2047. He pointed out that in the last 10 years, the BJP government has given tap water connections to 14 crore houses, while the Congress gave just 3 crore houses in 60 years.

Farooq Abdullah, Jammu and Kashmir’s National Conference President said on Wednesday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was trying to divide the country over religion. He also said that those who will vote for them must prepare for hell. Farooq Abdullah said Muslims cannot snatch away the rights of others.

Farooq Abdullah also called Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government a threat to the survival of the country. Omar Abdullah, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister cautioned the people not to divide this country on the basis of religion, otherwise a storm will unleash making the survival of the nation difficult. He said it is better to talk about uniting the country, instead of dividing its people.

He was addressing an election rally in Thanamandi area of the Rajouri district in Jammu and Kashmir. The Anantnag parliamentary constituency will go for elections on May 25. Faroukh Abdullah reacted to PM Modi’s remark that the Congress will redistribute people’s money and property to Muslims if voted to power and said Muslims respect all religions. He said that they are Muslims and Allah has told them to respect other religions. He further added that a Muslim cannot snatch anyone’s right.

He remembered an incident when former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi once stopped his car in Pulwama and assured a poor Hindu woman that he would give her a mangalsutra as she could not afford it. Farooq Abdullah said those who were against the INDIA bloc are against the nation.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had earlier sparked a controversy last month as he commented that the Congress would take away the hard-earned money of the masses and distribute them among infiltrators and those with many children.  Speaking at a rally today, the Prime Minister took a jibe at the Congress and said the governments in the past were not able to implement the Indian Constitution in Jammu and Kashmir. He was referring to the revocation of Article 370.
