As China faces a surge in respiratory illnesses caused by viruses like HMPV, RSV, and influenza, the Indian government has assured the public of its readiness to manage any potential health risks.
A Joint Monitoring Group meeting, chaired by the DGHS and including experts from WHO, NCDC, and ICMR, confirmed that India’s surveillance systems are robust, with no unusual rise in respiratory illnesses domestically.
ICMR plans to enhance laboratory testing for HMPV and monitor trends year-round as a precautionary measure. Authorities have urged citizens to stay calm, emphasizing that India’s preparedness drills have ensured safety.
Stay informed but avoid panic during this flu season.
