Ahmedabad: Covid-19 continues to go berserk in the state because Gujarat added 1,069 new cases – the highest in the last 211 days or almost seven months – in the last 24 hours on Saturday.
The last time the country recorded 1,000-plus cases on June 4 at 1.120, when the second wave was considered to have begun to decrease.
In terms of a daily surge, the country recorded a 63% increase of 654 cases recorded on Friday.
Of the total daily cases, 79% are recorded from eight major cities.
Ahmedabad was led by calculating 559 followed by 156 in the letter.
It was 224 days everyday for Ahmedabad and a height of 214 days for letters.
While hospitalization remains low, experts warn that the surge should not be taken lightly.
Data analysis by the Gujarat Biotechnology Research Center (GBRC) revealed that while omicron towering was large, the majority of Covid cases in December were Delta-Sub variants.
On Saturday, the Maharashtra government also acknowledged that the Delta variant was dominant with more than 70% of cases of this variant.
Data by GBRC for December revealed that of the 325 full genome sequencing carried out, 186 or 57% of the sample showed ay lineage (55 AY.127 cases, 24 AY.102 cases, 14 AY.4 cases and so on).
The Core Delta variant (B.1.617.2) was found in 106 or 33% of the sample.
The remaining 10% is the Omicron variant (3 cases B.1.1.529 and 30 cases of BA.1).
Dr.
Urvesh Shah, Professor and Head of Microbiology at the GCS Hospital, said that Sub-Lineage AY did not have the main deviation of the primary delta lineage.

“Sub-genealogy does not always imply any functional biological differences, whatever tract and other characteristics,” he said.
Experts see this ‘Covid explosion’ as the beginning of the third wave.
Dr Bharat Gadhvi, President of Ahmedabad Hospitals and Nursing Homes Association (AHNA), said that private hospitals saw doubling cases received in the last 24 hours from 17 to 33
