Coronavirus infection, including the national capital, has wreaked havoc all over the country. Meanwhile, in view of the increasing cases of Kovid-19, Delhi Government has imposed night curfew in the capital from 10 am to 5 am till 30 April. The rate of infection has also increased to 5.54 percent.
The increasing positive rate of coronavirus is a matter of concern for the government because the positive rate determines the spread of infection. At the same time, when it goes above the five per cent limit, experts agree that there can be a lot of trouble in curbing it.
Doctors say that the corona cases will have to be closely monitored. Increasing positive rates indicate that the disease is spreading rapidly. Dr. Jugal Kishore, Head of Community Medical Department at Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi, said that a fresh wave of corona in the national capital started in March. He said that there is still laxity in the norms of Kovid-19 in Delhi. This needs to change.
