beetle Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 It is surprising how littke flak Kerela is getting for not getting it's act together for so long. When covid started, it was like kerela was the super advanced state that was successful unlike the bimaaru north states. Had it been UP or Uttarakhand that fared so bad...the media would be tearing the govts apart for being backward and useless. Kerela and Maharastra need to be pulled up for their extremely poor covid response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ash Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Wasn't this already discussed? Kerala never achieved peak like other states so the virus has more population without antibodies to infect. And I am not seeing any reports of oxygen or bed shortage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
