New Delhi: India has reported 7,447 new COVID-19 cases in the last 24 hours, taking the active caseload to 86,415. The death toll stood at 391 with 7,886 being cured in the last 24 hours.
According to the data released by the Health Ministry, active cases account for 0.25 per cent of the total cases which is the lowest since March 2020. With this, the recovery rate has gone up to 98.38 percent, which is the highest since March 2020, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
The daily positivity rate is 0.59 per cent, i.e. less than 2 per cent, for the last 74 days. The total immunization has reached the 135.99 crore mark with more than 50 percent fully immunized individuals.
Reduction in caseload and increase in recovery rate can be a ray of hope for the country. However, the number of omicron cases in the country also cannot be denied as it is spreading faster than any other type according to the World Health Organisation.
The Omicron tally has reached 83 in India with 10 new cases being reported in Delhi, taking the national capital’s daily increase to 85, the highest in the last 137 days. There are omicron positive cases in 13 states of India. However, no serious case has come to the fore so far.
So far, Omicron cases have been confirmed in 77 countries around the world. And one death has been reported in the United Kingdom.
