While the opinions over a fourth wave vary, India should brace up from the experience of the US, China and its own small Covid clusters.
In view of rising Covid-19 cases, the Punjab government on Thursday made the wearing of masks in public places mandatory, ANI reported.
These five states include Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Mizoram, Maharashtra and Delhi. The Union Health Ministry has advised all states to continue monitoring the spread of infection and undertake the required steps for prompt and effective management of Covid-19.
In view of an uptick in coronavirus infections in the national capital, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) will hold a meeting on April 20 in which it may consider reimposing the mandatory use of face masks.
A total of 685 Covid-19 patients are currently under home isolation in the national capital.
