However, there is also a matter of concern that the investigation of corona is not being done that much right now. There were 12,270 Covid tests on Sunday, while 8,646 tests were done on Saturday. Even in such a small number of tests, reaching close to 5 percent of the infection rate raises concern. According to the World Health Organization, having a positivity rate of more than 5 percent is ‘worrying’.
But why are the cases increasing?
The third wave caused by Omicron had almost stopped, but now once again the number of infected people has started increasing. Even though the number of patients admitted in hospitals is not increasing, but the number of infected people living in home isolation is increasing rapidly. But what is the reason for this. Experts believe that after the decline in infection after the third wave, all the restrictions were lifted. The compulsion to wear masks was also abolish in Delhi. The carelessness of the people had also increased. Due to all these reasons, the infection has started increasing once again.
