All markets and public places have been closed. The lockdown was imposed in a large area of ​​Fosan, a city of 1.5 crore, since Saturday. A total of 21,000 cases of corona have been reported in China so far, with 4.5 deaths.

Meanwhile, Pakistan has developed its corona vaccine with the help of China. Pakistan has named its corona vaccine Pakvek. Pakistan's health official Dr. "In these difficult times, China has stood by us and helped us cope with the Corona epidemic," Faisal Sultan said.

China provided raw materials for the corona vaccine. "We will soon start mass production of this vaccine locally," Sultan said.

People refuse to be vaccinated against AstraZeneca and are vaccinated against Chinese, he said.

In Britain, meanwhile, for the first time since March 2020, not a single death has been reported from the corona. Thousands died in Britain every day when the Corona epidemic hit Europe last year. However, a third wave of Corona is still expected in Britain.

Washington-based Dr. Rajesh Anumolu said that this is the first such map in India to provide continuous information. In which a special algorithm has been used to present the details of beds available in government and private hospitals in each city.

A team of 12 Indian doctors and 12 professionals have worked to help with this project. Now that the details of the bed are available on the map, the death of the patient on the way can be prevented. Raja Kartikeya, a pioneer of Project Maghna, said that these real-time helpmaps would work even in the event of a health emergency in India in the future.
