&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;A meaningful comparison of India with its largest neighbours &amp;mdash; Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka &amp;mdash; is a much better way to understand the spread of the pandemic and assess the effectiveness of responses to contain it.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;A comparison of India&amp;rsquo;s situation with its neighbours is much more meaningful than the comparisons regularly put out by the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, where India is almost always compared to countries in North America or Europe. It is well known that the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic has varied enormously across countries. While there are no conclusive explanations for this variation yet, age-structure, genetic make-up, universal BCG vaccination, and climate might play important roles. In all these respects, India is similar to its neighbours in South Asia. Hence, a meaningful comparison of India with its largest neighbours &amp;mdash; Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka &amp;mdash; is a much better way to understand the spread of the pandemic and assess the effectiveness of responses to contain it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The pandemic came to south Asian countries at very different times. Sri Lanka was the first to report a COVID-19 case, on January 27. The first case was reported within three days in India, on January 30. Pakistan reported its first case on February 26, and Bangladesh on March 8.&lt;/p&gt;

India’s Covid trajectory should be measured against that of its neighbours -Deepankar Basu & Priyanka Srivastava

-The Indian Express A meaningful comparison of India with its largest neighbours — Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka — is a much better way to understand the spread of the pandemic and assess the effectiveness of responses to contain it. A comparison of India’s situation with its neighbours is much more meaningful than the comparisons regularly put out by the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, where India is almost always compared to countries in North America or Europe. It is well known that the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic has varied enormously across countries. While there are no conclusive explanations for this variation yet, age-structure, genetic make-up, universal BCG vaccination, and climate might play important roles. In all these respects, India is similar to its neighbours in South Asia. Hence, a meaningful comparison of India with its largest neighbours — Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka — is a much better way to understand the spread of the pandemic and assess the effectiveness of responses to contain it. The pandemic came to south Asian countries at very different times. Sri Lanka was the first to report a COVID-19 case, on January 27. The first case was reported within three days in India, on January 30. Pakistan reported its first case on February 26, and Bangladesh on March 8. Please click here to read more.
