Disappointing news came on Sunday for the country struggling with the Corona crisis, in which the Indian Council of Medical Research, i.e. ICMR, said that the peak of Corona in India will come in November and there will be a severe shortage of ventilators and beds in the country's hospitals. But ICMR has denied this media record. The ICMR tweeted today and said that the news that this study was considered ICMR's is misleading. This study has not been done by the ICMR and at the same time, it is not an official report about the corona.
