The IIT-Hyderabad professor and Sutra Model scientist cited a paper by Italian researchers on infected people with falling antibodies that give immunity for six months
If the vaccination drive against coronavirus is not ramped up and Covid-19-appropriate-behaviour is not maintained, there is a possibility of a third wave of the pandemic in six-eight months, said M Vidyasagar, a scientist involved in the Sutra Model which uses mathematics to project the trajectory of Covid-19.
He, however, stressed the Sutra Model has not predicted any third wave and it is working on it.
