Dr Rakesh Mishra, the director of CSIR-CCMB has warned of a disaster if the current shortage of hospital beds, oxygen cylinders and vaccines continues for the next three weeks. The next three weeks are very critical for India in terms of the spread of the infection. People should take utmost care and precautions.

Dr Mishra said, “We have seen this kind of situation in Italy, where many people have lost their lives on the corridors of hospitals due to lack of treatment medicine and oxygen cylinders. Last year, healthcare workers were very effective in handling the situation.”
