Here’s what it actually mean by different stages of transmission of any disease (could be pandemic, epidemic like coronavirus).

Stage 1 :

- When the disease is imported into the country.

- People can be tracked and their is no local communication of disease because the person has been diagnosed and quarantined.

Stage 2 :

- When the relatives of those people who came from outside has been diagnosed with the disease but it’s trackable by govt.

- Basically the source of transmission is know.

Stage 3 :

- Transmission on community level, there is no way to track the source of transmission.

- All People can’t be quarantined because we can’t track them any more.

- In India some states are in stage 2 and some are at stage 3

Stage 4 :

- The rate of transmission is way much greater than people getting treated and recovered.

- Thousands and millions of people are ill, the whole country feels helpless and the medical facilities surrenders, like it happened in China and Italy.

Stay home! Stay safe! Stay informed! Stay tuned! :)
