Covid crisis: TIFR report says Mumbai may develop herd immunity by December-January

As per a report worked out by the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) almost 75 per cent people living in Mumbai’s slum areas and 50 per cent from non-slum areas will develop anti-bodies against the novel coronavirus. The projections submitted to the BMC said that herd immunity may develop by December 2020 or January 2021. However, the model did not account for the threat of reinfection. Due to the sharp economic decline as seen in the Q1 GDP numbers, there has been a growing demand to open up Mumbai and the rest of the country soon.
