A member of the government committee that estimates corona patients has said that half of the country's 1.3 billion people may be infected by infection by February. Members of the committee and Prof. of IIT Kanpur Maninder Aggarwal said, according to mathematical estimates, about 30 percent of the population is infected. By February the figure could be 50 percent.
The current spread of the virus is higher than the center's serosurvey. By September, 14 percent of the people in the serosurvey have been found infected. He said, the committee of epidemiologists, scientists, and other experts also expressed confidence in mathematical models. If measures like social distance and masks are overlooked, infection cases may increase to 26 lakhs in a month.
