The number of people getting infected with a corona in the country is increasing rapidly. In the last five days, 49 thousand 970 people have been found Covid positive. The number of active patients has increased to 65 thousand 286. These are patients who are undergoing treatment. According to the Union Health Ministry, 29 people have died due to infection within the last 24 hours.
Meanwhile, Indian scientists have made three big claims regarding the spread of infection and the situation in the coming days. Let's know who said what and what could be the situation in the country regarding Corona in the coming days.
Claim-1: Scientist of IIT Kanpur claims – 50 thousand patients will be found every day
Professor Manindra Aggarwal of IIT Kanpur has claimed based on a mathematical model formula that Corona will be at its peak in the middle of May. Up to 50 thousand cases will come daily. After this, there will also be a decline in the infection. He also said that there is no need to panic, this is not a wave of Covid.
Professor Manindra Aggarwal has given the correct assessment of the ups and downs and the peak of infection even before the mathematical model formula. Based on his report, the government has also made a strategy regarding Corona. This time he says that there is no need to be afraid considering revenge as a mutant. Now more than 10 thousand cases are coming daily. This figure will reach 50 thousand but the situation will not be serious. He said that this has happened due to low natural immunity. The situation will be completely normal in June. People's ability to fight the virus has decreased, which is why the infection is increasing.
Claim-2: ICMR scientist rejected Professor Mahindra's claim
Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) scientist Dr. Rajinikanth rejected the claim of Professor Manindra Agarwal of IIT Kanpur. Dr. Rajinikanth said that the figures of mathematical models are not trustworthy. Everyone should focus on real-time data. The claims being made are baseless.
Dr. Rajinikanth further said, 'There is nothing to worry about Covid. Everything is under control. In the coming days, the cases of corona will decrease again. People should take care of the Covid protocol. Those who feel mild symptoms should wear a mask. Avoid living in crowded areas. If you haven't got the Covid vaccine, then definitely get it. Apart from both doses of Covid vaccine, getting the precautionary dose is also done.
When we asked the question to Dr. Rajinikanth if the cases increase, are we ready to meet those challenges? He said that yes, now we are fully prepared to deal with Covid in the country. There is a sufficient number of labs for Covid testing. Apart from RT-PCR, antigen and self-test kits are sufficient. The government has also made adequate arrangements in hospitals. In such a situation, there is no need for anyone to panic.
Claim-3: Another ICMR scientist said – Corona will never end
According to another media report, ICMR's senior scientist Dr. Samiran Panda said that now people should get used to living with Corona. This virus will never go away completely. Yes, after a time it can be like influenza. Dr. Samiran further said, 'Corona will reach the endemic stage at some point. This too will be like flu and fever. Just like the outbreak of influenza becomes more or less every year, in the same way, the cases of coronavirus will come more or less every year. There was a time when influenza was a huge epidemic, but today it is in its endemic stage, that is, it is still present in the population in the form of sometimes less and sometimes more.
this is also good news
The Indian Journal of Medical Research of the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) claims that an Indian diet rich in iron, zinc, and fibre, regular consumption of tea, and use of turmeric in food can reduce the severity and death due to Covid in the country. has decreased.
The report said that during the COVID-19 pandemic, the death rate was reportedly 5-8 times lower in densely populated India than in sparsely populated Western countries. The study, conducted by an international team of scientists including India, Brazil, Jordan, Switzerland, and Saudi Arabia, aimed to examine whether dietary habits were associated with differences in COVID-19 severity and deaths between Western and Indian populations.
Component of the Indian diet played a role in inhibiting carbon dioxide (CO2) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated COVID-19 severity. In addition, regular consumption of tea by Indians has been shown to help maintain high HDL (high-density lipoprotein), also known as "good" cholesterol. The catechins in tea also act as natural atorvastatin (a statin drug used to prevent heart disease) in lowering triglycerides in the blood.
Regular consumption of turmeric in daily food by Indians resulted in a strong immunity. The researchers said that curcumin present in turmeric inhibited the pathways and mechanisms associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and the severity of COVID-19 and reduced mortality. On the other hand, increased consumption of red meat, dairy products, and processed foods resulted in increased severity and death due to COVID in Western populations.
