We published an article on the
momentum of the second wave of Covid-19 in India on May 13 and concluded that the numerical peak of the second wave got over on May 6. It has been suggested that this may be artifactual because the daily number of tests for Covid-19 has come down in some states and therefore the number of new cases may be underestimated. However, the fact that the test positivity rate is also decreasing (from 22.6% on May 8 to 19% on May 15) concurrent with the decline in number of new cases supports our contention that the second wave peak is over. Is there any other corroborating evidence that it is over?
