Bengaluru: The covid-19-week-19 test level in Karnataka has reached 3.6%, according to data with the Department of Health and family welfare from 5 to 11 February.
The weekly level was the highest in Shivamogga at 8.4%, followed by 7.6% tumakuru, 7.4% Kodawan, and 7% Ballari, while 3.1% in the Bengaluru urban district, including BBMP.
Daily positive cases have floated around 5,000-3,000 over the past few days, pointing further in the spread of viral infections.
The downhill trend, according to Dr.
CN Manjunath, a member of the Covid clinical expert committee, is an indication that Karnataka is at the end of the third wave barrier.
“Covid-19-appropriate behavior is like the use of masks and avoiding the crowd must be followed.
All must get a vaccine.
There will be a case of sporadic,” he said.
According to Dr.
MK Sudarshan, Chairman, the Technical Advisory Committee, the third wave might be seen until the end of February, in accordance with Mathematical Modeling.
“The third wave almost followed the trajectory of mathematics modeling.
In the last week of February, we will be able to understand where we stand.
There may be fluctuations.
UPS and down in daily reporting is possible.
There are various factors.
We cannot jump to certain conclusions at this time on Whether we are at the end of the third wave or not, “he said, adding that the sub-lineage emerging from the omicron variant cannot be ignored.
Some factors such as changes in testing only symptomatic criteria and many symptomatic people who avoid covid testing, ease of restrictions, crowding, and vaccination coverage all play a role in the trajectitan trajectitan test level, experts said.
In addition, there are concerns about the large gap in the daily ponytitude level between the district, from the start of the third wave.
Even on February 11, when the country’s daily participants were almost 3.6%, it was less than 2% in six Mandya regencies, Uttara Kannada, Dakshina Kannada, Raichur, Davanagere, and Koppal, while it was 8.4% in Shivamogga.
“Even in the third wave, the case has not soared in all districts at once and there are variations.
Test targets for districts also vary.
However, the overall weekly level of the country is reduced,” Experts, added that the focus had shifted to symptomatic testing, which led to gradual reduction in this case.
However, which determines the compressive pandemic trajectory is not clear because it depends on the coverage of global vaccination, inequality in the availability of the vaccine and the threat of a new variant.
