The epidemic in India is echoed next-door in Nepal.
The numbers are even more concerning in Nepal when looking at case positivity.
Case positivity in Nepal reflects an epidemic that is out of control, where cases are left to spread and spread.
Likewise cases in Peru overshadow those in Ecuador until case positivity is accounted for. Many more cases are left unaccounted for in Ecuador.
Here Ecuador has much higher case positivity rates, reaching 40%. Without cases identified, cases spread even faster.
Point is, COVID is far from over. In the shadows of the largest epidemics are epidemics that are being uncounted and so spreading and spreading.
