As we all know the nation is once again witnessing the spike of the third wave of covid, Omicron and the studies have already mentioned earlier that it will be most affected by children, pregnant women, and the elderly.
The elderly group has always been into the note in all the three waves as they are the generation who are likely carrying any health issues along with them and the chances are more by getting affected by covid.
This mainly catches on people who have health issues, lower immunity, and especially pregnant women who are prone to the immunity case when they are carrying.
The Doctors from the states which are high scale in the number of covid cases now came up with the reports on how covid is affecting children, elderly and pregnant women.
