COVID cases in some states showing early signs of third wave: ICMR

States that did not face an intense second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic are now showing early signs of the third wave with the increasing trend of COVID-19 cases, Dr. Samiran Panda, the head of Epidemiology and Communicable Diseases at the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) said on Monday. Panda further said it is important to not talk of India as a whole and to instead take a state-specific view when talking about COVID-19 because all the states are not homogenous.
