Government is preparing for the third wave and the unlocking process is being done cautiously. But there is no specific date for the third wave, but in an interview with NDTV, AIIMS chief Dr Randeep Guleria said on Saturday morning that covidiotic behaviour and crowding in public spaces may push India into the third wave sooner, rather than later.
“It will take some time for the number of cases to start rising at the national level. But it could happen within the next six to eight weeks… may be a little longer,” he said, adding that a lot depended on how pandemic appropriate behavior was enforced in the days to come.
Similar concerns have also been voiced by state administrations. In Maharashtra for example, the Health department reportedly believes that the highly virulent Delta Plus variant of the virus, combined with the relaxation of curbs could lead to the third wave within the next two to four weeks.
