Summary:

This book captures the big picture of the COVID-19 scenario in India in the year 2021, by stitching together the writings of people with a ringside view of different facets of the second wave, which was markedly different from the first wave. While it is currently too early to objectively research COVID-19 and its impact on society for want of adequate temporal distance, this book serves to record the events authentically. Covering a span of three to four months of the peaking pandemic in India, it presents a vivid idea of the onslaught, complexities, confusion, chaos, and indecision in every field, amplified by the suddenness and ferociousness of the second wave. The book will appeal to researchers in health care, community health, public policy, administration, governance, mental health, and other interdisciplinary domains.
