Coronavirus | Policymakers in India must understand that the pandemic is still quite early in the country: Global health expert

The Hindu  

While nations across the world struggle to contain the fallout of the human toll and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, public health experts such as Dr. Ashish Jha, K.T. Right now, the statistics suggest that around 20,000 people have died of this virus in India. If high-income countries with very good surveillance systems are missing anywhere from 30%-70% of deaths from the coronavirus, why would I not expect that India would also be missing a similar proportion of deaths? 60%-70% of India’s population will have to get infected — the idea of nearly a billion people getting infected. If India does all of that — the masks, the testing, getting rid of large gatherings, really rethinking indoor restaurants and other places where the virus can spread – then I think India has a pretty good shot at keeping the virus from getting into exponential growth that will cause us to get to hundreds of thousands of cases a day.
