Bengaluru: With sturdy induced pandemic is mostly appointed and most public places now open to visitors, concerns are being raised on the possibility of increasing the number of fresh Covid-19 cases, especially those given fatigue for the appropriate Covid behavior.
On the possibility of increased infection, Dr V Ravi, Virology, and members of the Covid Covid Technical Advisory Committee, said: “It all depends on how responsibly people, how fast we increase the coverage of the vaccine and the emergence of a new variant.” While the emergence of a new variant is not in anyone’s control, the emphasis must be on vaccination and follow the appropriate behavior of Covid, he said.
Dr.
Ravi believes it will take three to five months for a fresh surge after one wave subsides.
“We have to track the level of the ponytitility of the test and the average moves for seven days and impose binding steps and detention immediately the case begins to show signs of increasing [to avoid the type of surge that occurs during the second wave].
Every time a multiplied level positivity test Somewhere, there must be guards and investigations carried out, “said Dr.
Ravi.
He said the authorities should not wait until the counseling level seven days to 5%, and vice versa impose restrictions when the level of multiple testing is multiplied, say from 1% to 2%.
It can be remembered that, after relaxing locking last year, there was a wave in the case in July 2020, and Sunday other restrictions were forced again in Bengaluru.
However, compared to last year’s experience, vaccination coverage, which began in January 2021, would make a difference, experts said.
“Last year, we had no advantage offered by vaccines.
With almost half of the qualified population getting at least one dose in Bengaluru, we are in a much better position,” said Dr.
Giridhara R Babu, epidemiology, and TAC members.
The third-less deadly Babu Wavedr said it was cases that would not be soaring this month but more contagious variants from concerns appear – most likely.
By increasing the speed and population coverage of vaccination, the peak of cases in the next wave, it is expected that around October-November this year, can be reduced dramatically, he feels.
Crowding anywhere remains a problem, said Dr.
Babu, insisted that in addition to a slower vaccination drive, the third wave could be triggered earlier than expected if it was facilitated by SuperSpreader events such as the church, the crowd in a closed room or close-contact setting, especially with non-compliance with covid behavior.
Dr.
CN Manjunath, the Nodal Officer to test, said the covid testing is one of the best ways to capture a surge in the case.
“The general public must behave responsibly and avoid unnecessary trips.
Visiting hometown and villages during the festival will be a concern and people have to avoid travel like that.
A series of festivals are in the corner, starting in August and going far to October, “he said.
When contacted, D Randeep, Special Commissioner, Health, BBMP, said that Ucike continued to carry out nearly 65,000 covid tests a day and the detention strategy continued without change.
He said behavior in accordance with Covid and Mask Compliance was a must and marshal in the field upholding the rules.
“Epidemiologists have been directed to focus on any cluster if it appears.
We have environmental data that acts as a trigger for the second wave.
We are in the initial stages of locking release and we have to watch carefully,” said Randeep.
The only cluster seen recently in Bengaluru was on the military campus in my referral, he added.
