53:17Now PlayingOn The Urban Debate today, Sahar Zaman takes you through India’s COIVD-19 reality. Our country reported nearly 20 lakh Coronavirus cases in August and over 5 lakh cases recorded just in the last week of August. More than 75000 cases reported for five straight days between August 26 and 30.
As India unlocks, are there fresh fears? Is India now taking COVID-19 lightly?
Researcher, Global Health, Bioethics & Health Policy, Anant Bhan, says ‘Our absolute numbers are pretty alarming. This is not a time to loosen up. While it is important to focus on non-COVID healthcare, COVID-19 is a priority we should not be moving away from’; and, Nephron Clinics, Chairman, Dr Bagai says, ‘The herd immunity concept & the vaccine is a long way away. We should not bank on them. We shouldn’t be complacent or fall into mental fatigue’.
Whereas, National Secretary of BJP RP Singh Khalsa says, ‘Gradually we have to bring the economy back & the society back to the system. We cannot keep sitting on lockdowns. We are well prepared’.
