The number of corona victims in the country has crossed the four crore mark. More than five lakh people have lost their lives. In the last 24 hours, 4,362 new cases of corona have been detected in the country. At least 66 people have been killed.

Corona has been slowing down in the country for the past few days. The number of new patients is declining sharply. Efforts are being made to prevent corona infection.

According to a recent study by some researchers at IIT Kanpur, a fourth wave of corona is expected in June. In the midst of this prediction, shocking information has now emerged.

Members of the Covid Task Force have also indicated that the virus will spread further as humidity rises in the summer. The only way to avoid this is to wear masks, social distance and strict adherence to the Covid Protocol.

Corona has been asked to focus on testing, tracking and vaccination. The speed of the third wave of the corona is decreasing. In such a situation, scientists are now commenting on the fourth wave.

Scientists at IIT Kanpur have predicted that the fourth wave would arrive around June 22 and last till October 24. The rapidly spreading corona has created an atmosphere of fear in the minds of the people.

Members of the Maharashtra Covid Task Force have also indicated that the incidence of corona virus will increase in the summer. Task Force's Dr. Shashank Joshi and Dr. Rahul Pandit have given such indications.

Dr. According to Shashank Joshi, the prevalence of corona is higher in winter in western countries and in summer in India. The same trend is seen in the first two waves. "Humidity is high in summer and viruses grow when the humidity rises," he said

Dr. Rahul Pandit said that in the first and second wave of Corona, Corona was at its peak in summer. Although the third wave knocked on the door during the cold season, it is said that the cold in Mumbai is very low.

According to Dr. Shashank Joshi, people should be careful this summer considering the trend of two waves. It has often been observed that people become unresponsive when the incidence of corona decreases. They don't wear masks etc., so seeing the trend of two waves, they give people masks etc.

We can avoid every new wave. However, he described the forecast for the fourth wave at Kanpur IIT as a mere estimate. He said that no concrete study is being done on this. At the moment, it's hard to say anything about the new genre.

Dr. Rahul Pandit says BMC has been tracking people who come in contact with Corona patients since the first wave. This still needs to be emphasized. It is said that now all the people who come in contact with the patients who are being found should be traced.

So as to break the chain of corona virus. Emphasis should be placed on increasing corona testing and vaccination as they appear to be low, he said. This prevents every wave. A Hindi website has reported about this.

Corona has engulfed the entire world. Many developed countries have succumbed to the corona virus. The rapidly spreading corona has created an atmosphere of fear around the world. The number of patients has crossed the 44 crore mark.

The total number of corona victims has reached 446,721,728. The corona has so far claimed 6,020,582 lives. So far, 379,869,871 people have won the battle of the corona and have been discharged after treatment.
