The coronavirus peak for the most populous Indian states may still be an amorphous concept but the challenges it will throw up when it comes to pass, will be insurmountable
Epidemiologists and researchers are groping in the dark to predict when India, the world’s second most populous country, will reach its own peak of Covid-19 infections.
Speaking at a webinar organised recently by the Indian Scientists Response to Covid-19, an initiative comprising some 600 scientists,former executive director of the National Health Systems Resource Centre, claimed, “The ICMR protocol is that ILI cases which are symptomatic, outside coronavirus hotspots and containment zones will not be tested. There’s a phenomenal reluctance to test even symptomatic patients.
While India is heading towards a phase full of uncertainties, mostly owing to the lack of being accurately able to predict when the country might arrive at their coronavirus peak, here's how the infection steadily progressed since the first positive case was reported on 30 January. In bigger cities and urban towns, migrant workers who found themselves without jobs and income to support their humble households, were forced to journey back to their native towns and villages; walking under the scorching summer sun on national and state highways without food or water for days and weeks on end. Many died on the way – either of hunger and dehydration, or in road mishaps.
