There is a possibility of India's second Covid wave peaking between May 11-15 with 33-35 lakh total ‘active’ infections, The Times of India has reported quoting scientists working of pandemic projections. This means the number of ‘active’ cases in India will keep increasing roughly for another three weeks before a decline.
The mid-May peak is likely to be three time higher than the first peak of over 10 lakh 'active’ cases witnessed on September 17 last year, the report said.
The current model shows that Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan and Telangana may see a peak of 'new' cases during April 25-30, while Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh might already have reached their peak.
