The country sequenced only 0.2% samples till date, one of the lowest in the world

To date, Maharashtra (14,003 samples) and Kerala (5,485 samples) have sequenced and analysed 23 % and 9 % of the country’s total volume analysed.
Do these % makes any sense? Be worried

Take the case of Kerala. 5485 samples out of a total identified cases of 40,90,036.
That means only 0.13% of the samples genome sequenced.
Do this is enough to conclude that what Kerala is witnessing now is only because of DELTA alone?

Many make surmises that this is not third wave or ruling out a new variant in picture.
But my question is whether these conjectures are based on proper and sufficient evidence?
I don't think like so!

I am trained and self learnt to look at the evidence & draw my conclusions on sufficient data and scientific evidence.
Therefore, I refuse to be a believer of narratives!
