As the government said above, 18 are eligible to get vaccinated from May 1 and can register through the COWIN application or Aarogya Setu. It is happy to see around 1.30 crore members have registered in a single day in the online application.
The seriousness of COVID 19 is now known to the public after witnessing the videos of burning dead bodies in New Delhi. The bodies are continuously cremated as death keeps increasing. The other countries are helping India by providing the necessities.
The medicine is not sufficient, and the patients are made to wait for an hour outside the hospital before the initial treatment. The patient's relatives are screaming to save the lives of their dear ones.
At the same time, it is shocking to hear the news that 3000 patients escaped from the hospital in Karnataka. The government has allotted a separate team to search them.
The curfew is helping in many states as the second wave is under control. Still, many states haven't implemented curfew as there is no need. It is very challenging to control the second wave of coronavirus; if the public cooperated with the government, it would be easy to tackle.
