of handling covid19 crisis like lock down and building emergency makeshift hospitals:
"Dr Anthony Fauci, on Friday prescribed a number of measures that India should immediately take to take on the second wave of Covid-19 in a war footing. The three primary recommendations laid down by Dr Fauci are an immediate imposition of lockdown for a couple of weeks, setting up of emergency units as hospitals like China and having a central organisation...."
"Secondly, India should follow what the Chinese did when they had a crisis, he said. “You might recall, literally, within a few days to weeks they built these emergency units that served as hospitals to take care of people. It was an accomplishment that everybody marvelled at. It just seems to me, what I was viewing on television, what people were looking for a desperate need for hospital and care. That’s the first thing..."
"Then, the Centre can mobilise different groups of government, he said. “For example, what is the role of the military? Can the military come in and help? I mean, you can immediately get military help the way we, in the United States, have used our National Guard to help us distribute the vaccinations."

Lets face the facts: The earlier the lock down the more effective. During the 1st wave, lots of (asymptomatic) hindu rural migrants returned to their home villages like in uttar pradesh, bihar.. and in effect had spreaded the covid far and wide. Buiding field hospitals there is like someone tossing rupee100 notes in the air and the poor hindus will jump in to fight to grab them. Even new field hospitals with 10s of 1000s of beds will not suffice. The bottom line is india has very poor health infrastructure and has so far spent little on health care. I read b4 the covid, only 1 out of 5 indians died in hospitals
