Super spreaders: Kumbh Mela pilgrims

Jack Good Health and Well-being

Whilst India has been suffering from a spike in COVID-19 cases and deaths, fears have arisen after millions of devout Hindus gathered in the Himalayan town of Haridwar to participate in the Kumbh Mela festival, which has been branded as a "super-spreader event". Unfortunately, these fears have proven to come true after many reports have come out that people returning from Kumbh have tested positive.

With regards to the good health and well-being SDG, what could the Indian government do to prevent future super spreader events?
