New Delhi: The deadly coronavirus, which is said to have left a Chinese laboratory at the end of 2019 and engulfed the world, continues to cause serious concern for many countries in the world even after a year. These countries also include superpowers like the US, UK, France. Although vaccination campaigns for corona prevention have also started in most corona-affected countries, the virus is changing its appearance and becoming a bigger threat to mankind which is yet to be fully released by scientists in a country.

Now the situation is that the second wave of the virus is making a hue and cry in India, the third wave of the deadly coronavirus, and the fourth wave have left some of the world's richest and powerful countries in panic. The most worrying thing is that the second and third waves of the corona seem to be more frightening than the first wave.

The US, which has been hit by the second and third waves of the corona, is now scared of the fourth wave, so the French and BRITISH governments are now forced to make lockdown as the last option with all the protective measures being adopted, but the people there are now is so strongly opposed to the imposition of the lockdown in the form that it is facing a lot of difficulty in complying with the rules of the lockdown, while the governments of European countries, which are hit by the third wave of the corona, believe that the consequences of exempting the lockdown during the second wave have emerged as the third wave, so now the strict lockdown is the only way to deal with the terrible situation of corona infection. Lockdown is the only option.

It is also surprising that the WHO team that went to China to find out the causes of the coronavirus has not yet come to any concrete conclusion despite detailed laboratory investigations. The team has estimated that the deadly coronavirus that has affected most countries of the world may have first spread from bat to other animals, and then its infection began throughout mankind through those animals.

Significantly, governments in many countries around the world, including the United States, have alleged that coronavirus originated in a Chinese laboratory, but the current head of the World Health Organization is defending it. According to a report submitted by the WHO investigation team to the organization, it has found no concrete evidence to confirm the possibility of the virus being transmitted to a Chinese laboratory. Now it is in this favor that the causes of the origin of coronavirus need to be ascertained and investigated from other aspects. On the other hand, the World Health Organization has cited the slow pace of vaccination as the main reason behind the worsening situation caused by the second, third, and fourth waves of coronavirus in many countries of the world.

The organization said vaccination is the only way to control the epidemic, but the slow pace of vaccination in many countries is worrying. Nearly fifty European countries have been hit by the epidemic. According to the World Health Organization corona infection in European countries has increased at the rate of ten percent in the last week. Although the government of every country that has been affected by corona infection in the world believes that vaccination is the only way to control the corona epidemic, the pace of vaccination in many countries is still very slow given the pace of the spread of the epidemic. The U.S. progress in vaccination is currently considered good, where one-third of the population has been given the first dose of corona vaccine and 20 percent of the population has been given both doses of corona vaccine. On the other hand, there are countries like Australia which are far behind their target.

The Australian government had set a target of giving 4 million doses of vaccine in its country by March 2021, but so far citizens have been able to get 6 lakh doses of vaccine. One of the major reasons for the sluggish pace of vaccination in most countries is the misconceptions about vaccines, so people remain indifferent to their vaccination. It is now the responsibility of governments to encourage people to get vaccinated by launching awareness campaigns to remove these misconceptions. In fact, in the meantime, when there are reports of a person getting infected with a corona or any other health disturbance after vaccination, people start questioning the usefulness of the vaccine, but scientists believe that the vaccine is not meaningless on the basis of such negligible reports.

It may be recalled that seven people in the UK died of blood clotting recently after being vaccinated with coronavirus. The British government is on full alert so that such reports do not create any confusion in the minds of the people, which is why nearly half of Britain's 75 million population has been given the first dose of corona vaccine and the second dose of vaccine to 50 00,000 people. The UK government has taken another notable initiative to prevent the spread of corona infection. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced to provide free rapid tests of coronavirus to every citizen of the country twice a week. The vaccination for 18+ is started in India also but some states don't have an adequate supply of vaccine, stay safe and follow covid appropriate behavior after vaccination also which is your duty and responsibility as a citizen and huma
