> what exactly does this mean?

That our response to the current wave has been tragic.

> Other countries did not have a corona virus wave?

Yes they did. However, we had the opportunity to learn from the tragic things that happened elsewhere and could have done stuff to prevent it/soften the blow but we didn't. The problem is not that we "allowed" another wave to happen, but that we allowed people to die due to a lack of oxygen and ICU beds.

When did we get unlimited resources, should we stop everything else and put everything into oxygen and beds. These kind of things can only be reacted to not prepare surplus before hand coz for a developing country like India resources are never enough.
