At present, the threat of fourth wave of corona in the country has been averted. The reason for this is a steady decrease in new infections for the last ten days. Sources in the Union Health Ministry also said that there is no danger of a fourth wave yet. But the government is continuously conducting genome sequencing of the infected, so that in case of any new variant, it can be detected immediately.
According to the data of the Union Health Ministry, less than two thousand new infections have been registered during the last twenty four hours. A total of 1569 infections have been registered, which is the lowest this month. Let us inform that on May 7 this month, the maximum number of 3,805 new infections were registered in a single day. Last month, on April 12, the lowest daily cases of corona were recorded at 796 and after that they started increasing. But after May 7, they started declining, which is still going on.
Omicron sub-variants active
Experts believe, since there are many sub-variants of Omicron currently active in the country. However, the country has already faced a wave of Omicron. So these sub-variants do not pose much of a threat. 97-98 percent of adults in the country have been vaccinated. Due to this, hybrid immunity has been created in people.
Sources said, there are three phases of the epidemic after which it starts weakening. The same seems to be happening this time as well. However, the government is taking full precautions.
