Third Wave- All You Need To Know

We all are still fighting with the second wave and trying to come out of it healthy, but before we could strengthen ourselves the third wave of Corona is ready to attack us. The first wave was very much new to all of us, people were scared as they had less knowledge of it. It didn't affect people as much as the second wave has taken many lives.

The second wave symptoms were cough, fever, sore throat, body pains etc., People could see these symptoms from the 2nd day or sometimes after a week of getting affected. Even though many of them fought back the virus others have lost their dear ones. The second wave has seen a lot of deaths when compared to the first wave.

As India saw a dip in the cases from the last year 2020 November they never assumed to be hit by the second wave so soon. The government was not prepared for the consequences till they saw a rise in Coronavirus cases and deaths around the Country. They understood that a disease can not be muted so easily and one must be prepared at all times. The Government has recently issued a warning regarding the third wave of the virus whose impact is much stronger than the second wave. Places like Kerala, Karnataka and Maharastra have seen few cases of the new wave that is rapidly spreading out to other states.

Many of them have questions related to the new wave. What problems one may need to face? How to be safe? So fae we ourselves need to prepare to fight against the virus. Don't go out unless it's needed and urgent. As the new wave is much more dangerous than 1st and 2nd waves, do stay at home to save your family from this disease. The Government has imposed a lockdown to bring down the increasing cases of Corona and people must follow them.
