The indian lockdown experience last year was pretty strange..
There was maximum lockdown during all of April and May. But ,cases kept increasing steadily.. The economic pain was unbearable after 2 months.. and unlock 1 was announced from June 1 even though covid infections were still rising steadily.. ( 240 covid cases on April 1st, which incrrased to 8380 cases on May 31 2020).. We went for unlock 2 and so on towards further relaxation.. inspite of cases rising through June, July, August and then peaking in September.. So, why did covid cases peak in September.. This is unlike any lockdown experience in western countries.. where cases peaked during lockdowns.. and lockdowns were eased only after substantial reductuon in cases..
