I mean the COVID wave in India, or at least most of India. But like an ocean's waves, a third wave may be preparing to hit us if we don't watch out. It seems to be readying itself in some western countries.
We were completely foxed by how quickly the second one rose to affect lots of people, hospitalise some and kill some. There is a bit more preparedness here, perhaps, but much recklessness too.
As an educational institute, we hope we can run classes at the campus instead of online. Students have told us they hope for the same, and we are exploring ways to do that in a safe manner. We have all had enough, but till a large number is vaccinated, it is still wise to be cautious.
So we don't have a repeat! Be safe, get vaccinated, and still wear a mask. Let's beat it this time at least.
