Covid-19 Trajectory Rising in 8 States as India Records Over 40k New Cases, Fresh Surge Highest in 111 Days

News 18  

Eight states including Maharashtra and Delhi are reporting a rising trajectory of new COVID-19 cases as India recorded one lakh infections in just three days including the latest spike of over 40,000 cases in the biggest daily increase in nearly four months. The worst hit state of Maharashtra recorded the highest number of new cases 27,126 since the outbreak of the pandemic early last year while Delhi reported over 800 cases for the first time this year as the positivity rate breached the 1 per cent-mark after over two months. As authorities sound alarm over the fresh surge in the cases, AIIMS director Randeep Guleria said the “main reason” is that people feel the pandemic is over and they are not following COVID appropriate behaviour. The Health ministry said Maharashtra, Kerala and Punjab cumulatively account for 76.22 per cent of India’s total active caseload, with the western state contributing to 62 per cent of such cases, while Kerala and Punjab account for 8.83 per cent and 5.36 per cent of active cases respectively.
