However the third wave is unlikely to be as brutal as the second when India reported 4 lakh plus cases daily.
"Our predictions are that the peak will come within a few days. As per current projections, we should hit 20,000 cases per day by the end of June. We will revise this as needed," Vidyasagar, a professor at IIT Hyderabad told Bloomberg.
