Despite a dip in the number of Covid-19 cases in Kerala and Maharashtra, the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) has instructed Karnataka to implement rigorous COVID-19 norms during the impending third wave in October-November. State authorities have stated that if the state is still prudent to exercise caution during the festival season in the light of the third wave of Covid-19.
As the fear grows, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has also emphasized the importance of Covid injections in decreasing Covid deaths. It has been reported that unvaccinated people are 10 times more likely to die from the lethal disease than those who have gotten the jab. Data reveals that the Covid-19 vaccine, which is presently available, offers strong protection against hospitalization and mortality for most patients, even during the delta surge.
