1. At this time solidarity is important and gestures of solidarity are welcome. But when crores light lamps, we caution that there is a huge prospect of violation of physical distancing (as witnessed on March 22nd).
2. A major worry is false inference, with claims of mass-lighting leading to a solution for #COVID19 pandemic. Viruses interact with molecules, cells, and tissues in a purely physical & chemical manner. No evidence that shouting, singing, or #lighting,will influence these actions
3.We urge the govt to substantially widen scope of testing. All over the world, enhanced testing rates have enabled identification of asymptomatic patients, helped allocate resources, made physical distancing more effective, & provided crucial input to epidemiological projections
