Dr T Jacob John:  Unlikely Anytime Soon death reporting are too less   
  but Death in second wave of corona how many time higher to government of India as all national Government run private run TV  channels lamenting in almost many many time above hundred time those happened in for same period of statistics of 2020 on death infection spreading      who also to say s if mine theory unless virus brought kept spread man made  then killing as mechanically where corona infection be kept as excuse for deaths natural  no co morbidity  due underneath attacking of heart chest to make compact hardened constriction of vessels tracts etc  
 Question how such virus as claimed vaccine strain other pathogens are so sensitive to India like country’s  temperatures rising virus is being remaining stable its transmission speed spreading become so severe  unless man made spreading closed aeroplane seminar room community hall party offices meeting   rail train journey place been used by culprits how Marcus was blamed proved I why I am to reprove those happening been made how   we as virologist handling such labile virus like Rindeprst PPR  
Dr T Jacob John: Like in earlier pandemics of influenza and like in other countries, the second wave of Covid-19 has happened in India. The second wave is different and more worrying than the first.
India Today: Lancet's study indicates that there could be over 1000 deaths per day in June. What is your view?
  But consistently it has remained below two. More infections will cause more deaths. While healthcare staff is better informed, sheer pressure of work and shortage of resources may cause more deaths.

 Covid second wave is nearing its peak: Noted virologist Dr T Jacob John
There is no evidence that the variants are evading immunity. Covaxin immunity has been proved to be effective against all new variants, says Dr John in this interview.

 Yes indeed, the scale and speed of spread in second wave took me by surprise. That was because I, like everyone else, was under the impression that India had only the "founder variant" Wuhan virus, which was later (April-May 2020) replaced by "D614G" variant.  I was sure that D614G cannot cause a second wave. And it did not. The second wave is mostly being driven by new variants -- UK (B.1.1.7), South Africa (B.1.351) and Brazil (called B.1.28 and as P.1) variants plus two so-called Indian variants (B.1.617 and B.1.618), possibly others. We also had B.1.36 (called N440K). These crept up but no one was checking for these variants -- and government, ICMR, INSACOG, the three responsible agencies failed India. Why no one was watching out is not known but the ultimate place where the buck must stop is the National Disaster Management Agency, which is directly under Union Government. We saved a lot of funds by not establishing virology labs/employing virologists in the Health Management System and now we pay its price in the virus surprising everyone.

The second wave of infections has been even worse in terms of the impact as the country was largely unprepared in terms of health infrastructure and resources like oxygen despite battling the pandemic for over a year. Then why seek accuracy when no other data has accuracy? The overall death rate is low in India for three reasons. One gross under-reporting; second, demographic advantage, with 30% of population below 15 years and only 30% above 45 years. Only 5% are over 65 -- in Europe and US it is 13-15%. Death will be low in a younger population. 
If the government will not create policies based on data, then having data will not help. Data collection is also expensive. India has lived all these years without data, reliable or validated, so why this need for data now? I am being rather "cynical" because I have been writing about these lacunae for decades but no other scientist or public health person has supported the demand for a system to have data to drive policy and responses.
