New Delhi: The next 40 days will be crucial as India may see a surge in Covid-19 cases in January, Health Ministry officials said, going by the pattern of previous outbreaks.
“Previously, it has been noticed that a new wave of Covid-19 hits India around 30-35 days after it hits East Asia…. This has been a trend,” news agency PTI quoted an official as saying on Wednesday.
According to the Health Ministry officials, the severity of the infection this time is less and even if there is a wave, fatalities and hospitalisation will be very low.
