The latest forecast report by SBI Research stated that the third wave of COVID-19 pandemic could hit India next month (in August) and its peak would be seen a month later in September. This is a piece of terrible news to hear, especially when a large section of the public are showing no sense of social responsibility today.
The State Bank of India report is titled ‘Covid-19: the race to finishing line’. The forecast only makes us wish that most young adults would outgrow the attitude of partying or merry-making sooner or later. The report says that though India can experience daily Covid-19 cases of around 10,000 in the second week of July, keeping in mind the current situation, the cases are largely expected to rise by the second fortnight of August. This is nothing but the announcement of the beginning of the third coronavirus wave.
As per global data, the third wave peak is generally 1.7 times the peak of the second wave. Even in June, SBI released a report stating that the third wave of the pandemic could be “as severe as the second” wave. But, deaths are predicted to be lower during the third wave compared to the second wave. As of today on July 5, India recorded a rise of 39,796 new coronavirus cases. Ergo, the nation’s overall Covid-19 tally as of today stands at 3,05,85,229. The death toll is now 4,02,728 with the addition of 723 fresh fatalities.
