The assumption that everybody is susceptible to coronavirus may not be true. A review study by the Indian Institute of Public Health in Gandhinagar found that 80 to 90 per cent people living in the same household where a member is diagnosed with COVID-19 do not get the disease. Dr Dileep Mavalankar, Director of Indian Institute of Public Health, speaks to NDTV about this.
