Interestingly, Wayanad, the most populous district in the state, also has a high R value of 1.29.
In India the effective reproductive level is 0.97 in July.
This R value is an indicator of how fast the infection spreads and describes how many people, on average, is infected from one positive person covid.

However, in Thiruvananthapuram the R value is between 1.05 and 1.1 during the same period.
“The level of spread will be greater in malappuram because of the high population density.
Moreover this district has the highest population of NRKS.
The difference from the first wave and now is that if we isolate positive people in hospitals during the first wave now positive people are at Under care at home.
Therefore, the speed of spread has become high among family members, “said Dr.

Way and have r value ranging from 1.22 and 1.29 for the past week.
“On the way and, most cases are reported outside the tribal area.
The spread in the community is more because positive people remain under care at home.
More cases are detected and more people are isolated in their own homes.

We cannot say in all districts, Delta variants only produce deployment.
There are several variants that are now apply in the state and therefore requires scientific studies to find out how this variant behaves at Each place.
But one thing we will definitely have the current deployment for days, “he said.
