Andhra Pradesh's Krishna district gears up for possible third wave of Covid-19

Krishna (Andhra Pradesh) [India], June 12 (ANI): Administration of Andhra Pradesh's Krishna district administration is gearing up to confront the challenge of a likely third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. Along with speeding up the vaccination program, the administration is charting out plans for improving medical infrastructure.

J Nivas, Collector of Krishna district said, "The district administration is on alert to face the possible third wave, keeping the second wave experiences in mind.
