COVID Cases Are Increasing Rapidly in China
According to the information, every day, countless cases of COVID are coming to the fore in China. Expressing concern over the spurt in Covid-19 cases in China, former Indian diplomat KP Fabian on Tuesday said, “More than 60 per cent of China’s and 10 per cent of the world’s population are likely to be infected with COVID, and millions may die.”
‘China Adopted The Wrong Way To Fight Corona’
KP Fabian said, There are some reports. When you talk of 10 per cent of the world’s population, which is about 8 billion, that means a percentage of 800 million, which is a vast number. He said that China had adopted the wrong way of fighting COVID.
China’s Vaccine Is Not That Good – KP Fabian
He said that China’s vaccine is not that good. And they refuse to get better vaccines or improve their vaccines.
