Karnataka unprepared despite COVID-19 second wave warning in November

Although experts had warned of the onset of a second wave of COVID-19 in Karnataka in November 2020 itself, the State did little to keep its health infrastructure prepared. As a result, there has been a rapid surge and the situation has gone out of control, say a few experts.

State’s Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) had, on November 30 last year, submitted a report to the government recommending that the State should be well prepared for the second wave of Covid.
