  The kind of Corona situation which we saw in Europe and Africa during the first wave is witnessed in India now. It is highly disturbing to see patients being treated in ambulances due to a lack of beds in hospitals. It speaks about the speed of covid surge and the inadequacy of medical infrastructure. Queues in burning ghats and crematoriums present a distressing scene.
