I can’t find anything definitive on this story. Are those confirmed cases? I see suspected cases in quarantine. I see some travelled to China but these 2800 weren’t like people who came straight from China into quarantine, correct?
It seems like they’re people who presented at a doctor or hospital and then went into quarantine. I’ve never been to India, but all you hear is about the filth and unsanitary conditions throughout the country. It would seem if there is indeed 2800 cases and these people who are sick were out mixing in society, that in a month the number there would blow right by China. I would guess they have a better medical system there given how many people go to India for medical tourism and how many Indian doctors we have here, but they don’t seem like a government who could just wall off a city with a few million people to the degree the Chinese can.
This is all uneducated conjecture, but damn, if they really have 2800 cases, that feels more troubling than China’s 10x that
