The Coronavirus crisis is deepening, and the next four weeks are crucial. The central government has warned people to be more vigilant to stem the second wave of corona.

Member of the Niti Aayog (Health) and Chief of the Anti-Corona Action Force, Dr. V. K. Paul said the number of corona cases are growing rapidly and the crisis of corona is getting deeper day by day. All states should emphasize the need for more people to be tested, vaccinated and to use masks.

The demand for vaccination of citizens of all ages has been rejected. From the scientific point of view it is not right. Dr Paul and Rajesh Bhushan explained.

They also pointed out that no country in the world has opened vaccinations for all age groups. The chief ministers of Maharashtra and Delhi had demanded that vaccinations should be made available to all age groups.

On Monday, the number of covid cases in the country continued to rise, reaching an all-time high of one lakh per day. With India reporting 96,982 cases new COVID-19 cases in the last 24 hours, the country has over 7.8 lakh active cases.
