IIT Kanpur study about fourth wave in June is not based on science: Dr. Ravi Godse

Chandigarh, March 2, 2022: A study by IIT, Kanpur, students about the fourth wave of Corona hitting the country in June is spreading like fire. Everyone is shocked about this study, and this rumour is spreading like a wild fire. This study was discussed in detail during the live session between Dr. Ravi Godse, a world-renowned medicine expert from USA, and Lifestyle Specialist Ex Assistant Professor Dr. HK Kharbanda from Chandigarh. 

Dr Godse said that there was no  third wave  in India. Our statistical test is just how many of your known experienced difficulties in December '21. Don't call it a wave. According to Dr. Ravi Godse, the wave is defined  when there is a shortage of oxygen or beds owing to serious patients.  

Godse said that when the third wave has not come in India, then where will the fourth wave come from? 

Dr. Godse said in this live session that we respect statistics experts but it is not the work of statisticians and mathematicians to count the waves. Leave it to the scientist and the expert only. He said that those who had original Covid did not get delta, those who had delta, they did not suffer with delta again. That's why later when Omicron came and it was mutated and that's why those who took 2 doses and those who had delta also got Omicron. According to him, almost everyone in India has got Omicron and now if any sub variant of Omicron comes, it will also be the same and will not cause serious disease. Now there is no use to count wave or case.

In the end, he said that if someone has got two vaccines at the age of 18 to 65, then whether they get a booster or not, there will not be much difference. But if you are above 65 years of age or have comorbidities, blood pressure and diabetes or cancer, then definitely get a booster.
