Government of India alert after increase in corona cases in five countries, these instructions given to states

Amid rising cases of corona in China and America, a letter has been written by Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan to NCDC and ICMR. It has been said that all the states will have to emphasize on genome sequencing. At present, there are not many cases of corona in the country, deaths have also come down considerably. But because this virus is spreading again all over the world, in such a situation the government also does not want to be negligent.

Fewer cases but government alert

For this reason, a letter has been written to NCDC and ICMR on behalf of Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan. In that letter, he has said that if new variants of corona are to be identified in time, genome sequencing is necessary for this. States have also been instructed to send samples for genome sequencing. Apart from this, Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya is also going to hold a review meeting tomorrow. Although on one hand the Government of India is asking all the states to be careful, on the other hand it is also giving advice not to panic.

Why is the situation better in India?

On Tuesday, Dr. NK Arora, a senior member of the Anti Task Force and the head of the Kovid vaccination campaign, has bluntly said that India has no need to be worried about the situation in China. They say that we are hearing that the corona virus is again spreading rapidly in China. But talking about India, vaccination has been done on a large scale here. In the adult population, most of the people have been vaccinated. NK Arora has also given this information that all the variants of Corona that have come so far in the world, their cases have been found in India. In such a situation, there is only a need to be careful, not to worry.

What is China’s biggest tension?

Now it is important to understand here that there is a lot of difference between the situation of India and China. Corona explosion has happened in China at this time because vaccination has not been done on a large scale there. In its elderly population, many people have not got corona vaccine. According to China’s official news agency Xinhua, so far 87% of the population above 60 years has been fully vaccinated, but only 66.4% of the elderly above 80 years of age have been vaccinated.

The mistake that made the situation uncontrollable in China

There has also been a problem with China that from the beginning it followed a very aggressive policy against Corona. He kept the Zero Covid policy in force in the country for a long time. Because of this, the cases came less as compared to other countries, but the situation on the ground did not improve much. After some time people lost their temper and protest against the Chinese government started on the road. Because of that demonstration, China again had to make many changes in its policies, the Zero Covid policy also had to be relaxed. The result was that now record corona cases are being registered in China. The situation has become such that there is no bed for the patients in the hospital. The dead bodies are not being cremated and many patients are not even getting the necessary medicines.

The big thing is that at this time most of the people of China do not have immunity to fight Corona. The reason for this is that due to the zero covid policy, they did not come out of their homes. Such restrictions were imposed that they did not get infected even once. In such a situation, there was no immunity in his body against Corona. At the same time, the sub-variant of Omicron that is wreaking havoc can even dodge the vaccine. Because of this also, the situation in China on the ground remains more explosive.
