Indians just don't care, what masks ? what safe distancing ? Quote Several million Hindus have gathered to take a dip in the Ganges river as a deadly second Covid-19 wave continues to sweep India. The devotees are marking an auspicious bathing day on Monday at the Kumbh Mela religious festival in Haridwar city in the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand. Officials say they are struggling to impose safety norms due to huge crowds. Hindus believe the river is holy and bathing in it will cleanse them of their sins and bring salvation. The Kumbh Mela takes place every 12 years and the venue is chosen from amongst four cities, including Allahabad, Haridwar, Nasik and Ujjain. Haridwar's turn to host the gathering came amid a sharp rise in the number of coronavirus infections, with India consistently reporting more than 100,000 cases daily in the past few weeks. On Monday, India logged more than 168,000 new cases, overtaking Brazil to become the country with the second-highest number of cases globally. With the total case tally of more than 13.5 million cases, India is now only behind the United States which has reported more than 31 million cases. With 13.4 million cases, Brazil is now at number three. Health experts had appealed for the Kumbh Mela festival to be cancelled, but the government went ahead saying safety rules would be followed. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-56713993 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Authorities have to "consider ways to solve the issue that efficacy rates of existing vaccines are not high", Chinese media outlet The Paper reported, citing Gao Fu, the head of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. His comments mark the first time a top Chinese expert has publicly alluded to the relatively low efficacy of the country's vaccines, as China forges ahead in its mass vaccination campaign and exports its jabs around the world. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/covid-19-china-mulls-mixing-vaccines-to-improve-efficacy-of-jabs-14600406 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are better to review "Cases/Head of Population". In this case, the US #8, Brazil #41, Bangladesh #141, Pakistan #146 and India #125. For reference, Singapore is #121 so, technically, more cases but, of course, I would say our case numbers are more accurate.......except for the point many dormitory cases here are not included in our numbers. As the world approaches 3M deaths, it is interesting that the UK is #13 on the "Deaths/Head of Population" after the introduction of vaccines where a few months ago it was #4-6 type level. On this one, Singapore does very well at #191, one place above New Zealand. {Worldometer} 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
