Check comparison of "Covid19 deaths" data between USA and India. The speed of the wave was ferocious, undoubtedly so. But I do hope that someday folks will ask the Q'n to Indian media that damaged this war on covid by its sensational reporting, leading to run-in on resources!

Had Delhi not been hit this ferociously, media frenzy wouldn't have been that severe. India and Indians paid through the lives of their loved ones because of Indian media's obsession with Delhi & its hate for @narendramodi - pandemic reporting lacked sensitivity and objectivity!

Just check this weekly trend-wave of pandemics by nature,are meant to follow this trajectory - cases rise exponentially first & then curve starts flattening while death continues to go up before it also starts to fall. Unlike other countries, wave in India lasted close to a month

Indian media knew that and they seem to have made the best use of this time. They knew that PM @narendramodi is experienced enough to control this in time, reason why they went all out during this one month & objective was clear from the word go!

Way Indian media shifted gears thru this wave is a tell-tale sign of the real game. Giving free pass to CMs of erring states (Mah, Pb, Kerala & CG), media went after PM @narendramodi & BJP states-Check states, Gupta's journos reported from, for validation

Note 4 graphs of daily cases in India, USA, UK and Brazil- even a layman can tell you from the picture that Indian wave was shorter than all 3 other most affected countries- surely if wave of blame is with @narendramodi than credit for controlling it so fast should also be his

Indian media-in pursuance of their hate for @narendramodi has weaponised Covid19 and that is why you wont see any discussion on this huge achievement; instead, they have now shifted their discussion to vaccination- again trying to take advantage of the prevailing rush for same!

Since all data that has been used above is absolute no so I will stick to using absolute data only.
USA- 29.49 cr (169 days)
India- 20.9 cr (136 days)
Brazil-6.7 cr (135 days),
UK-6.46 cr (175 days)
Germany- 4.99 cr (157 days)
France & Italy- 3.6 cr & 3.45 cr (156 days)

Tell me what does this data of vaccination tell you and that too when whole world is reeling with shortage of vaccines ?

Check this data for the average vaccination rate: at India's present rate (although it will go up), India will add minimum 9 crores or 16 crores on maximum side in June alone- surpassing USA.

And this thread about how it was yesterday in UK / touted by Indian media as a success story 😁😁😁
