    By the way this virus is spreading around the world, it now appears it is going to touch the lives of at least half the worlds population.

    I am seriously wondering why did the world community do little or nothing for over 4 months since this virus was first detected in Wuhan on November 17, 2019?

    Hope and pray the situation wouldn't worsen given the current exodus and limited social distancing of poor people due to their need of survival. Government must come to immediate help to protect the vulnerable every corner of India. Just like the virus does not have borders the government machinery must not have any borders to implement whatever is needed to protect and save more Indians from death.

    It is more than the predicted or registered ! it went all ways thru to the remote villages who dont have any clue of the virus ! God forbidden it wont happen ! GOD BLESS INDIA ! Politicians should go away from their dirty politics and take the advantage of the situation which is more dangerous than VIRUS !

    People are cooperative so far ! but GOVT should take the step on a war-foot rather delaying like any GOVT works or court proceedings as its a testing time of patience of citizens of INDIA !!
