Indore: COVID-19 relief; no case reported for 4th time this month

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): While many northern cities are scared of the fourth wave of COVID-19, Indore got relief from the fluctuating COVID cases on Sunday as it dropped to zero.

Moreover, this is for the fourth time when daily cases dropped to zero. The total active cases, however, remained 25 as no new patient was discharged on Sunday.

City had witnessed zero COVID cases highest in the month of October in 2021 i.e. ten times.

Nonetheless, the number of sample testing has also decreased to lowest but officials believe that it is not affecting the daily cases.

“Number of Covid-19 cases has decreased in the city. We have stopped conducting random sampling from the last one month due to drop in cases and didn’t find much rise in cases except some sporadic cases for a couple of days in the last month,” District Nodal Officer Dr Amit Malakar said.

The health officer has also cautioned people for being alert during the marriage season.

“Experts have already sounded an alert due to the rise in cases in the northern states and appealed to the people to continue following COVID norms as negligence can become the call for another wave of the deadly pandemic disease,” he added.
