At stage 3, virus spreads fast in the community, it gets difficult to trace the original source.

According to Dr. Gyani, coming 5-10 days would be essential to control...

...all those who are asymptomatic now, might start showing symptoms.

“We are running short of time in preparing COVID-19 hospitals

the outbreak in India can happen any day in coming weeks..

He said that the government is still following the old stringent testing policy

“The government is testing only those who have all three symptoms together, coughing, breathing problem and fever...

...If the patient is having only one of the symptoms then they will not be tested.”

Dr Gyani pointed out that the government needs to restrategise

it is serious about breaking the chain of transmission.

Dr.Gyani said, we need to identity COVID hospitals and then train nurses and medics and co-workers.

The government had enough time to prepare itself for the pandemic.

Now, that we have stepped into stage 3 as claimed by Dr Gyani

The big question is, do we have enough time to control the spread of the disease?
