This is the biggest "celebrated too early" moment

i lost my dad last thursday most painful feeling ever.. he had a dream to see me as doctor im in final year mbbs now he left me now before i become doctor i hope this ends soon no family should go through wt we have been thro my mom n brother recovered unfortunately we lost my dad.. stay safe take care of your parents you cant see them suffering..

"Never seen a crowd like this before" India's PM is such a character.

Credits goes to supreme leader & his party. "Corona Go, Go corona" Electon campaigning, religious gathering,

Modi- I have never seen such crowd Corona- 👀😱

"I have never seen such a crowd before"🤣...

This is what happens when the govt. Focus more on election rather than its people. This is horrible and as an Indian I am leaving everyday with a lot of fear. I'm hoping that everything will come to normal soon. 😔😔

Still india will elect BJP into power in the next election. Religion and Patriotism has proven to be the best tool to influence these voters. We can only hope that this crisis had opened their eyes.

I lost my 5 family members , my dad and sister and others family members. Really poor medical in India 🇮🇳. People died there every day.

When will people learn, never celebrate too early!

The deaths are severely under reported. Its a disaster in here

Things I learned in this pandemic: 1. Never celebrate too early or get complacent. 2. We are nothing in front of mother nature . 3. Life is so unpredictable . 4. WHO is not that great as I used to think. 5. We have entered the era of Biologic warfare. 6. Never forget to count your blessings 🙏

moral of the story: you can not get complacent, true on both individual level and national level

Modi: I've never seen such a crowd Me: I've never seen such an idiot

busy defending Israel while the country itself is unable to manage 🙄

Mod: I have never seen such a huge crowd. Covid: yeah me neither.

My mother died waiting for clyinder and hospital bed for 2 days, she was healthy before covid. This is a murder by Govt management n not a death by illness.

At 3:58 in the video where Prime Minister was boasting about large crowds at his political rally happened on April 17 instead of April 10. At that time, some of the states were in lockdown due to heavy surge in coronavirus cases

Modi is now investing massive amounts of money to rebrand his image. A massive PR excercise is being planned with hundreds of crore money and professionals

You indians have gone through such a tough time, you guys are so resilient that will help prepare for future pandemics. Stay strong india and know that you'll eventually come out from the other side love from Hong Kong🇭🇰❤🇮🇳

You can't expect Indian media to show these these type of reports...

India; We beat the Virus Covid 19: how cute..

My heart hurts bad. I feel lucky to just be healthy. Really hope things get better soon. 🙏❤️

I lost my job at the worst time of my life I'm already poor and I don't even know what to do I'm only earner in house hope everything becomes fine please take care everyone and stay strong we will recover this

Me and my father got infected with covid 2 weeks before. Thankfully, we both are now fine and soon will be all right. But being in that mess has showed me how poor circumstances are right now in all over India. Govt. has just shrugged off their responsibilities, scammers are targetting people in need, bodies are floating in rivers bcoz creamtoriums are full..these things will make you sick through your stomach. I pray for my country and for those who are unwillingly succumbing to death for no reason at all.🙏🙏🙏

when people elect an unudecated person this kind of situation is obvious.

Guess what we are gonna get many cases again very soon and if not we defiantly will see a huge surge in the holidays again because common sense is lost by human's.

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread

◇ Lessons from human history ◇ ♧ never put pineapple on pizza ♧ never invade russia in winter ♧ never have a -pool- river party during pandemic

“India has saved humanity from a major tragedy by effectively containing the coronavirus” 😂🤣

My dear Indians ..this is time to realize that ur vote is very valuable..plz think once before u vote plz

I pray for these unlucky Indian people,from France. 🇫🇷❤️🇮🇳

Important point WSJ missed here is that the government was warned around a months back by the health experts but still they went on with rallies, celebration and all. The government took a gamble on the people and apparently it's costing the people themselves.

He failed us. That's the only thing I can say. Going through mental trauma

I was in a hospital with my mom. Everyday, I used to see dead bodies being carried on a stretcher and that broke me a lot. It was most horrible thing of my life. I also lost my mom. I wish all this crisis end as soon as possible. It has been the worst year for me and everyone.

The task force setup for monitoring covid had reported new variants B.1.617 and N440k back in march and the rallies and festival continued even after that ,the govt ignored the report of the more contagious variant and now we have failed 🙏

They may reject, but our whole political system sitting on central aswell each n every on in all states have drenched their hands into the blood of countless thousands of people everyday since the beginning of April which could've been averted but their sheer negligence and incompetence costed us a huge tragedy of playing with human life.

Hope you get through this respect from Australia 🇦🇺🇮🇳❤

This is what happens when you fire all your scientific advisors and jail those who try to warn you. Clearly religion takes away 100% of your brain😂

This was the first balanced video I saw by a global news agency. They not only blamed government for the current crisis but also praised it for handling the pandemic effectively in the past. This is the kind of unbiased reporting that I expect from agencies like BBC and AlJazeera.

Fairly balanced analysis from WSJ. Also the issue of overcentralisation of decisionmaking which would work in small countries regardless of whether its economic issues or health care doesnt really work for India, the optics of differential pricing was also ignored and the premature declaration of victory was kinda of jingoistic.

and our pm modi tried so hard to protect his image in the international level..even twitter was forced to delete tweets critizing the gov.

There's rarely an Indian family, that haven't lost their own one

Pray for India.Sympathy from Malaysia...🙏😪

Watching from Africa, I've not worn a mask since January, this gave serious reason to start wearing one

A painful lesson: never celebrate too early

In the united states It really feels like things have gone back to normal

Major problem here are the uneducated politicians.

I can't imagine what it's like for the medical staff there, u joined to save people but ur seeing them die helplessly

The prime minister right now: 🤡🤡🤡

Honestly speaking covid is starting to feel like it's a global biochemical attack😭

@wallstreetjournal - Please put subtitles in Hindi for our Indian Viewers. Indians will get the necessary information from a credible source as well and WSJ will gain viewers, which in itself is necessary. Win-Win.

Lesson learn : you cannot blindly believe in religion and not thinking of others people

You will never get real numbers beauty of Indian democracy!

According to them only Modi conducted political rallies and only hindu festivals saw mass gatherings

I was in my third year med school was working with an organization connecting calls for beds and oxygen and I remember this wave creating a havoc across the nation, there were young children dying, literally whole families being wiped out in a matter of weeks. Disastrous.

I'm seeing a lot of comments solely blaming the Indian Government and various state governments for the current COVID mess in India. The thing is that people of India are also equally responsible for this current mess. We Indians became highly careless in the months of January, February and March. Nobody was following COVID protocols. People were thronging in cinemas to watch movies. Restaurant were full of people. The 2nd wave was of such a huge magnitude that no one ever expected that such type of destructive wave could hit India. I remember that in 2020, Britain's Healthcare system was on the verge of collapsing. And compared to Britain's wave, this 2nd wave in India is at least 100 times more dangerous. Britain is considered a developed nation, whereas India is a developing nation. So when Britain's Healthcare system got overwhelmed than how can India's healthcare system handle such a wave.

1.4 billion people is how.

Really appreciate such an unbiased reporting by WSJ, they not only discussed India covid crisis but also showed figures what happening in the world at that time. Moral of the story is do not let your guard down until the end of Corona is scientifically proved with fact, figures and cases trend in the country and around the world.

I live in town near The Ganges river. One day people saw 20 to 30 dead bodies floating in river. Continued for several days. People don’t have enough money to cremate, they are disposing dead in river.

If you give priority to religion over Science, this will happen.

Modi :i've never seen such a big crowd before. Corona :Me neither.I've never seen this much food.

I lost my aunty last night 😔. so much painful

SCAM CALLS ARE DOWN 🙂

I m from Delhi... I confirm what is reported is true.

Always celebrate everything too early ..

Excellent video, but you missed the entire issue of vaccines. Up until Feb'21, India exported more vaccines than the amount given to our own people. This could have been because of pre-existing clauses or international diplomacy, but whoever advised the government on this matter was clearly mistaken. It's an absolute disaster now.

For India, TBH we shouldn't be checking cases per million graph since it mostly downsizes the real scenario. There should be more concise measures probably.

blame everyone, but lord god modi. don't blame lord modi even that he make huge gathering for his political campaign

Gatherings took place in West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh but the surge was seen in Maharashtra and Delhi. So, looks like this justification is incorrect.

Everyone in every country blamed their leader and government when the cases went up...just saying the moment things came down, everyone went on with their daily lives.

Wonderful presentation 👌🏻

Shan li a Chinese reporter giving update on India. They can’t event criticize their go to for this whole pandemic situation. They are talking about India.

Should have added that Govt started relaxing after vaccination started on 16th January 2021. Also to be noted, the so called super spreder event where they happened those areas are still to be hit by second wave. The biggest surge of cases happened in the state of Maharashtra and Delhi where none of the political rallies as well as religious festivals took place. Agreed with the last part of the video where they said, everyone thought covid was over, because everyone in India would have told you same if you had asked them in January.

We were just overwhelmed we doctors were going crazy by so so many patients without enough manpower I felt so helpless so many times at work it's not a good feeling. It sucks to work in lack of resources lack of oxygen , faulty ventilators , lack of medicines. Only making it difficult for us.! Anyways cases are coming down now but ICUs are still full where I am working and that might explain why death toll is sitll rising 😞

Seen a lot of story about him, he must be honest and for people to talk this good about him

God bless India 🇮🇳 🙏 ❤ from nz

When I was Covid-19 Positive on 2 May, my final exams were to be started from next day and whole of India was going through this crisis but my college authorities didn't even bother to cancel exams, and I had to give online exams while having fever and whole family was positive. This was really bad experience when People don't understand the pain some go through due to Covid-19. People only understand when they go through same. And i couldn't give one paper. I am doing M. TECH from NIT

No one is safe unless everyone is safe..

so, can anyone tell me whether India is in lockdown now?

It's true, I can certainly say that real number of deaths and infections is as much as 50 % or 60 % more.

Modi should resign

the first wave which was managed by central government was relatively good, 2nd wave disaster was a mix of bureaucratic incompetence, govts & people being complacent & coinciding with elections in 5 states

This was balanced coverage for a change

Singapore has a lot of B1.617

Lots of lies and half truths with same political motive of targeting Modi who has been Indias most popular leader in long time. In reality this is what happened in India. I know because I live here and saw everything with my own eyes 1. Lockdown only lasted first 3-4 months. By August 2020, restrictions were eased & in a country of nearly 1.4 billion social distancing is impossible. 2. But despite lack of social distancing things were not bad until December 2020. 3. Between November and December more than 65000 ppl came from UK and brought UK variant with them. This was widely reported in Indian media and you can refer to them. During Jan and Feb these NEW variants which are more powerful started spreading and mutating and by mid March (exactly 12 months after first wave) India got hit by 2nd wave and that crippled the health system But it's funny that even after this American media is NOT criticising Joe Biden who is openly asking Americans to not wear masks after vaccination. This is same callous behavior but nobody in America will point that as American has worlds biggest corrupt media.

Currently deaths are high, cases are low

Hope india gets well.

As government said clean your hands... From your belongings

The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different stream of income that doesn't depend on the govt especially with the current economic crisis around the world

I hope that if every state that having health care facilities like kerala, as no one here is waiting in line to get oxygen.

This was more than expectable from the very start

Excellent coverage .👍 To wsj

Resign Modi

Well explained without bias . Thanks

However please get better soon... Pray for India

What if they actually kinda “got” (or reached o developed or whatever the correct word is) herd immunity and that’s why they seemed to be doing great but then the virus mutated (to the so called Indian variant) and everything had to start all over again?

I'm Indian, and i see a lot of American comments of getting calls from India.. can anyone help me understanding what r these calls for, what r we asking u to buy??

fico imaginando se aki no brasil tivesse tido carnaval esse ano...
