After failing to effectively prepare for the second wave of coronavirus infections, health care workers are now forewarning people about the possibility of a third wave. Local administrations and some hospitals have already started to improve their infrastructure in keenness of a further rise in cases after a few months.
The third wave of Covid-19 is not likely to be as severe as the first and the second wave, as stated by public health experts. One of the researchers said that the third wave could be avoided with strong action but several others have issued comparable warnings in recent weeks.
