So my father got his second dose of Covaxin on 6th April and died of Covid on 25th April. He was co-morbid (hypertension and diabetes + brain stroke in 2016). Are there any studies on this phenomenon? I mean this shouldn't have happened, right? I am looking for explanations.

I agree that the curves may do something similar BUT the curves should be DRAMTICALLY foreshortened- it took decades to get cART to those countries and we already have nearly 1.8 billion vaccines given- this will end quicker by my tea leaves regardless of variants

Not mentioned in article but Bill Gates foundation also intervened at a critical point when pharmaceuticals were clear they'd save millions of Africans & Asians lives only IF they got paid royalties for the HIV meds. Hopefully covid can find a benefactor billionaire too?

AIDS analogy needs to factor in access, availability & affordability (3 A's) in these countries.Which drove fatalities Rather than specific 'runaway' sets of immune escape variants/sub lineages,post ARVs Right now we have a double whammy Rapidly mutating Variants & 3 A's

Is this rise in cases a function of risk homeostasis?
