Pretty much the same thing I saw in Bangalore back in April right before the country was locked out. There was a gathering that maybe had 30 people at it including my mother-in-law--and she got covid. Luckily, she had her vaccination dose so she had nothing but mild flu symptoms. My sister-in-law was at the same event and also got it. It spreads like wildfire due to the lack of basic hygiene, so the under reporting is probably even under reported.
