Prayagraj:The graph of the micro-containment zones is declining steadily in Sangam city as it has fallen from 314 (on June 10) to 118 (June 23) in the past 13 days alone.
The Sangam city witnessed the peak of the second Covid wave between April 7-25 and the district recorded the highest number of macro and micro-containment zones, 294 and 9,527 respectively, on May 7.
Once, there was a decline in the caseload since May first week, the number of containment zone – macro and micro – also started to decline.
Currently, the caseload of Sangam city was below 20 (per day) in the past one week and as a result, the constant decline in the Covid-19 cases has brought a massive decline in the number of micro-containment zones.
Data revealed by range police on Wednesday claimed that the number of macro-containment zones in Prayagraj district came down from 294 to 148 between May 19 and 23, and by June 5, the district did not have even a single macro-containment zone.
Similarly, the number of micro-containment zones in the Sangam city was on May 23 recorded as 1,891 and is reduced to 314 on June 10.
However, it declined from 215 on June 15 to 118 on June 23.
Not only in Prayagraj, the graph of micro-containment zone in neighbouring districts like Kaushambi, Pratapgarh and Fatehpur has also declined.
As of now, there are only six macro-containment zones in Pratapgarh while three other districts of the Prayagraj range — Prayagraj, Kaushambi and Fatehpur — have no macro-containment zone.
Statistics also revealed that only the Pratapgarh district has six active macro-containment zones in the range.
Besides, the number of micro-containment zone in Kaushambi (1), Fatehpur ( 17) and Pratapgarh (55) has also seen a fall.
Data also revealed that there are as many as 191 micro-containment zones in the Prayagraj range — Prayagraj (118), Kaushambi (1), Fatehpur (17) and Pratapgarh (55).
The number of micro-containment zones in the range on June 10 was 450, including 314 in Prayagraj, 20 in Kaushambi, 25 in Fatehpur and 91 in Pratapgarh.
Inspector-General of police, Prayagraj range, K P Singh, told TOI that despite the constant decline in the caseload in all four districts of the range, cops have been constantly cautioning citizens to adhere to the Covid protocol strictly to check the spread of the disease.
He, however, said that police teams are constantly taking up violators to task, particularly those spotted without masks.
