Caution and optimism: On preventing the third wave<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Third wave may be weaker than second, but vaccination, preventive steps must stay high<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

India, with the second highest number of cases globally and third highest deaths, is seeing about 50,000 cases being added every day. Though on a decline, the second wave is far from over and several States are relaxing lockdown restrictions, which, experts say, may be seeding (to cause something to exist and develop)<\/strong> the ground for a potential third wave. In this context, a mathematical modelling study led by the scientists at the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the Imperial College London, shows a wary (feeling or showing caution about possible dangers or problems)<\/strong> optimism. Will a potential third wave be as devastating (highly destructive or damaging)<\/strong> as the second, the scientists attempt to find out, and their answer is \u2018no\u2019. For that to happen, a trifecta (a situation in which you achieve three things)<\/strong> of \u201cextreme scenarios\u201d has to converge. One, over a third of those who have been infected in the past year must entirely lose their immunity. Second, an emerging variant of the virus must have a reproductive rate (R) over 4.5, or every infected person should be passing on the virus to at least four to five others. And finally, both of these must occur almost close to when the second wave has almost extinguished itself. This is beyond the transmissibility seen so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A third wave could be significantly buffered (lessen or moderate the impact of (something))<\/strong> by expanding vaccination. Were vaccines to be rolled out (officially launch or introduce a new product or service)<\/strong> in a way to cover 40% of the population, with two doses until August, it could reduce symptomatic incidence by around 55%. Less than 20% of Indians have got at least one dose of the vaccine and only 4% fully vaccinated. The Centre proposes to vaccinate all adults \u2014 about 94.4 crore \u2014 by the year end. India\u2019s States, which have at various times dealt with unprecedented crises during the tragedy, now have an estimate of what is needed to tide (any large change in something) <\/strong>out <\/strong>their peak phases. In that light, the ICMR\u2019s projections can help with ensuring the minimum number of supplies and other infrastructure in the event of an uptick (a small increase)<\/strong>. However, it should not be forgotten that this is after all a modelling study. None of India\u2019s eminent institutions, in the early part of the year, forecast the scale and intensity of the second wave. There is also the vexing (causing annoyance, frustration, or worry)<\/strong> matter of breakthrough infections, that is those contracting the infection in spite of being vaccinated. Sporadic (occurring at irregular intervals or only in a few places; scattered or isolated)<\/strong> studies in India suggest that this percentage of infection is small, though there is still no clarity on the real-world effectiveness of vaccines in the light of variants such as Delta and Delta Plus. There is also, so far, no theoretical limit on how infectious the coronavirus can become. The ICMR\u2019s analysis thus should not be taken as a forecast but rather a guidance and a reminder that along with vaccination, masks, avoiding crowds and physical distancing will remain the main defence against the virus for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
