No need to panic over Covid surge, but mask up, say doctors

IndiaTimes Thursday, 21 December 2023
Nearly 7 months after the WHO withdrew the public health emergency notification for Covid-19, the virus refuses to go away. The Omicron variant has mutated into several new subvariants, with the latest, JN.1, causing a surge in Covid cases.

Vulnerables advised to take vaccine.
