Express News Service BENGALURU: It’s here, folks! The dreaded second wave of Covid-19 has arrived, and like a well-made Hollywood sequel, seems to be more fearsome than its predecessor. As states grapple with the implications, the second wave has witnessed larger number of infections at a much faster rate. Surprisingly, the junta doesn’t seem to be too affected. We seem to have convinced ourselves that the worst is over. Much like a film, the sequel doesn’t seem to have caused much interest among the general public. Take a look at advertisements, for example. Everything from detergents to air conditioners have simply changed their positioning, and claim to kill germs that cause deadly diseases. If you’re travelling by an airline and are cursed with the middle seat, you are offered an entire PPE kit, resembling a bomb squad specialist. It’s a different matter that the seats are so close to each other, you can hear your neighbour’s thoughts!
