IIT experts claim, Omicron will bring the third wave: Professor Manindra Agarwal said - Natural immune system can beat the infection

The Omicron variant of Corona could cause the third wave of the pandemic. This is to say that Professor Padmashree Manindra Agarwal of IIT Kanpur. Pro. According to Aggarwal, instead of being very afraid of the new corona variant, there is more need to be careful. Omicron is highly contagious. For this reason, it can bring the third wave, but it is expected to be less deadly than before.

Professor Aggarwal said that the natural immune system is more capable of defeating the new variant than the vaccine. However, he said that in the next 8 to 10 days, he would prepare the study report and present the correct assessment. It is difficult to say anything precise on this right now.

The body's immunity will fight the virus

Pro. Aggarwal said that the effect of the Omicron variant of Corona on strong immunity will not be much. Its impact has been seen more on the youth in Africa. There the elderly are getting the benefit of vaccination, while the youth are more in the grip of infection. Due to strong immunity, children are still protected from the virus.

Natural immunity in 80% of the country's population

Pro. Manindra Aggarwal said that the natural immune system of 80% of the country's population has been strengthened. In such a situation, the new variant of Corona will not have any special effect on India. Surely, a wave of corona will come to India too.

He said that in the next few days, he will study the new variant of Corona on data from all over the world. After that, we will present our report. That report would be more accurate. Based on the data available at the moment, he claims that the natural immunity system will prove to be more effective in fighting the virus.

Covaxin is more effective than Covishield

Pro. Aggarwal said that the Covaxin will prove to be more effective than the Covishield in competing with the new variant. People who have got Covaxin can get relief from the new corona variant. However, he has still asked to wait, as it is difficult to predict anything about the nature of the disease based on existing data.

The first and second waves were also warned by Prof. Agarwal has

Professor Padmashree, Faculty of Computer Science Engineering, IIT Kanpur. Manindra Agarwal had earlier predicted the first and second waves as well. His report was proved correct. Pro. Agarwal had made this prediction through a computer model 'sutra'. Agarwal had released his report after studying the waves, vaccinations, and available health systems in different countries. His study is going on regarding the new variants. Next week they will release it.
