India’s official count of 390,000 deaths from Covid may actually be a massive undercount, said several public health experts, according to a June 27 report in The Wall Street Journal. The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation modeling suggests the true Covid-19 death toll in India exceeds 1.1 million, close to three times the reported number. An accurate count of Covid-19 infections and deaths is “a very important part of understanding how big a threat new variants are,” said Christopher Murray, director of the Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation.

SAJA advises news firms against using India variant term for new strain

SAJA advises news firms against using ‘India variant’ term for new strain Mid-Day 2 hours ago © Provided by Mid-Day The South Asian Journalists Association (SAJA) is advising news organisations against using the term ‘India variant’ or ‘Indian variant’, while describing the new strain of Covid-19, that reportedly originated out of India. “Over the years, certain disease names have provoked verbal, physical or social backlash against members of specific religious or ethnic groups. The most recent example is Covid-19, which was first detected in Wuhan, China. Health experts and advocates have directly connected terms like the “China virus” or “Wuhan virus” to the recent increase in hate crimes against Asian Americans,” the SAJA said. The association encouraged journalists to exercise care in their ongoing coverage of the Coronavirus surge in India and said it was available to foster fair and accurate coverage of the South Asian community.
