COVID-19 Third Wave May Hit Its Peak Btw Oct-Nov: Govt Panel

According to a scientist from the COVID-19 government panel, an alleged third wave of Covid-19 may strike between October-November. However, India is likely to witness half of the cases recorded daily during the second surge. The infection can spread rapidly if a new mutant of SARS-CoV-2 is found. Earlier, last year the Department of Science and Technology had formed the panel to tackle coronavirus cases surge using mathematical models.
