Exercise caution
The front page report (January 28) is even more reason for utmost caution. The weakening of COVID-19 is great news, but it persists for many. Reports from Europe and other countries suggest that they are going back to normal life. However, the situation is very different in India. It is difficult to come to a conclusion based on numbers alone. There is also under-reporting and unreported self-testing. There are even reports suggesting new variants. The Government’s moves must be in alignment with the ICMR and other medical bodies.
