The new variant of the coronavirus pandemic, Omicron, is creating dread across the world, spreading rapidly in several countries, including South Africa and other countries. Given that the second wave turned out to be rather devastating for everyone, as no one was prepared for it, everyone is now gearing up for a possible third wave.
A new cabinet panel has been formed by the Telangana government, to tackle a possible third wave of the spread of the virus in the state. Headed by Health Minister T Harish Rao, the panel also consists of Urban Development Minister K.T. Rama Rao, Panchayat Raj Minister E. Dayakar Rao and Education Minister Sabita Indra Reddy.
This panel is expected to give the government suggestions on how to avoid spreading of the new variant, and on how to expedite the vaccination program in the state. The health authorities were directed to expedite the vaccination across the state. Secretary, Medical and Health, was asked to specially focus on vaccination in Adilabad, Komaram Bheem Asifabad, Nirmal, Mahabubnagar, Narayanpet and Gadwal districts.
