Threat of third wave very less: Guleria
On the other hand, Delhi AIIMS director Randeep Guleria says that perhaps now the third wave of corona will not come in the country. He said that there is very little chance that the third wave of corona will come in the country like the first and second.

Even if it comes, it will not be as dangerous as the first second wave
Dr. Guleria said that the way the pace of infection has stopped due to the effect of the vaccine and the pressure on hospitals has reduced, the fear of the third wave coming every day is ending. He said that even if it happens, it may not be as dangerous as the first and second waves. He said that with the passage of time this epidemic will turn into a disease.
