Khera said, defying Covid protocols amid unlock may hasten a third wave while planning to attend functions, shopping without adhering to the Covid guidelines, a likely third wave may come sooner than anticipated as cautioned in the new report.
We continued to remain at home during the peak period and had not held any members’ meetings. Making an appeal to the citizens, Khera said, people must continue to keep visitors at home to the essentials and that too with the Covid protocols.
With the peak of the second wave well and truly behind us, there is a possibility of people assuming that the pandemic is now over. The coronavirus pandemic has been center stage in India’s public discourse since March 2020 when the country saw the first lockdown being imposed. People must cooperate in following the Corona appropriate behaviour making it a part of their life and must go in for vaccination on their turn which has positive results, said Dr.Yuvraj, Health Department.
