Time to welcome the new year and send wishing posts to dear ones! People worldwide are preparing new resolutions and planning vacations with their dear ones. It's also a time to leave the weight of past things and feel the relaxation of the new year's air. 

But one thing that is not leaving us completely is the horrific Covid-19. We all have seen its terrific face. No one wanted to enter in those past days when people were waiting outside the hospitals for beds and treatment for long hours.

Thanks to Covid-19 vaccines, which have curved the number of cases significantly. Over the last few months, we all have taken a relaxing breath. 

But unfortunately, Covid has again cached the momentum. Covid is known for bringing a new variant after every few months. The variant BF.7 has made a new entry in China and several western countries and has started affecting the well-being of several people. 

The world is again seeing Covid cases in lakhs a day. The death toll is also increasing. Some experts say that available vaccines are not as robust against the new variant as they were against the older variants. 

With the rise in cases, people are getting more concerned about their health. However, as of now, there are very few cases of the new variant in India. But we still need to take extra precautions and mask up to fight against this disease. Many experts and big faces in India have also urged to remain vigilant against Covid-19.
