Pune: Covid cases are active in Maharashtra down from 1.06 lakh to 45.905 in the past week, from February 7 to February 13 – a reduction of more than 60,000 patients in just seven days.
A similar decrease in the Covid case in this country has taken eight weeks in 2021.
The active case in Maharashtra has now touched the September 2021 level seen during the second wave.
But this week’s drop was much faster than last year.
In mid-July 2021, Maharashtra had an active Kaseeload around 1.04 lakh patients, which took almost two months to jump to 47,919 on September 18, 2021.
Similar reductions in the ongoing third wave in the week, the state health department data was revealed.
Dr.
Vineeta Bal, Imunologist, and Faculty at the Institute of Education and Research in India (Iiser), Pune, said, “Covid cases reported in the third wave tend to be less than the actual case, one reason to become a fast antigen at home.
The test test that user is possible Not reporting the results to the authorities.
There is also a major difference between individual vaccination status last year and last year, with more coverage among adults in the third wave.
“He said,” Even with a high level of infection because of the current domination of omicron, Most of the infected people do not show symptoms.
Such people may not be tested themselves or on the basis of government notice issued earlier this year to exclude asymptomatics from mandatory testing.
These two reasons can also be associated with a quick decrease in active cases, in addition to the decline natural in the third wave.
“Ajay Thakker, Chair and Managing Director, R Jupiter’s Hospital, told Tii, “About six weeks ago, the level of covid in hospitals was 60-70%.
This means that of the 10 patients who visit the hospital, 6-7 are testing positive Covid, regardless of the reason they come.
To this day, this level of participants is between 5% and 10% in hospitals, showing speed with fallen cases.
In my opinion, Covid is endemic.
This virus is not expected to return to its home destination and now there are throughout the world.
“A member of the Senior Covid Task Force told TII,” in terms of new and active cases, this decline was quite fast compared to last year during the second wave of pandemic.
That’s because people recover quickly because of a lighter infection in omicron waves, causing active casel to decrease.
“
In the Most, the Covid case actively fell 60 thousand in 1 week
