India’s Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics and Policy has warned that the country can soon be dealing with a "tsunami" of coronavirus cases.

Speaking to the BBC's Rajini Vaidyanthan in New Delhi, CDDEP’s Dr. Ramanan Laxminarayan said if the same mathematical models applied in the US or UK are applied to India, the country can have about 300 million cases.

A report by Bloomberg also expressed fear that India can become the next global hotspot in the pandemic.
