Epidemic Mosaic: State-Wise Patterns and Impacts of Covid-19 in India
Journal Title: Public Health Open Access - Year 2024, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
After being discovered for the first time in Wuhan, China in December 2019, the extremely contagious coronavirus illness (COVID-19) quickly spread to 212 nations and territories worldwide, affecting millions of people. The sickness was discovered for the first time in India, a sizable nation of 1.3 billion people, on January 30, 2020, in a student who was returning from Wuhan. The extremely contagious coronavirus illness 2019 (COVID-19) was initially identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. Over two million people have been verified to have been infected by the disease, which has spread to 210 different nations and territories worldwide. The sickness was initially discovered in India on January 30, 2020, in Kerala in a student who had just returned from Wuhan. Thus far, 17615 individuals have been verified to be infected nationwide (19 April 2020). The majority of studies and press reports center on the total number of infected individuals in India. But considering the vastness and diversity of India, it could be wise to examine the disease's spread across each state independently, as well as the nation as a whole. The goal of this research is to present a thorough overview of the COVID-19 pandemic analysis in India, including state-by-state death rates and management strategies. We obtained articles from the official website that describe the COVID-19 management approach and the death rates in each state, as well as up-to-date data from 2022 and 2023. With 4.2 billion people, India is the nation with the biggest population. The nation's economy grew significantly as a result of this disaster. India saw the third-highest number of deaths worldwide and the second-highest number of confirmed positive cases. Nevertheless, considering the vastness and diversity of India, it is crucial to examine the disease's spread in each state independently, as conditions in each vary greatly. We analyses data on the number of infected individuals in each Indian state in this research (limited to those states with sufficient data for analysis). Our analysis is intended to assist state governments in more effectively allocating their little healthcare resources in anticipation of emerging health crises.
