Covid Virus To Kill Lakhs In Next Two Years: Study

Update: 2020-05-02 06:58 GMT
If you feel that the Corona crisis will end anytime soon, think again. Experts say that the battle against Corona is going to be a long drawn one. Epidemiologists say that it could take at least a minimum of 18 months and a maximum of 2 years to control the virus completely.

By this stretch, an estimated 70 to 80 per cent of the world population will be infected by Corona virus. The death toll too is likely to hit the roof. And the worst part of it is that US, the global super power, is going to be among the hardest hit nations. According to a study by the Centre for Infectious Diseases and Policy of the Minnesota University, with the temperatures falling steeply in the coming days, the virus is all set to affect more areas and kill more people. The department, which aids the US government in tackling pandemics, has put out bleak projections for the coming days.

The study also suggests that the only way to tackle the virus is by improving the disease resistance. It is important to ensure that the resistance grows for at least up to the coming two years to fight off Covid, the report said. The reports say that the situation in most European countries is going to be the same. The UK too could witness lakhs of deaths due to Covid 19, the report added. Indeed, not a sunny projection at all!!
