34,113 Fresh Covid Cases In India, 24% Lower Than Yesterday

New Delhi: India reported 34,113 fresh Covid cases in India today, 24% lower than yesterday. The positivity rate rose marginally to 3.19%.

India’s Active caseload currently stands at 4,78,882.

Active cases are 1.12 per cent of the total infections in India.

The recovery rate is currently 97.68 per cent. There were 91,930 recoveries in the last 24 hours.

India’s daily positivity rate is 3.19 per cent.

10,67,908 Covid tests were conducted in the last 24 hours.

The decline in the active caseload indicates a lighter burden on the health care system due to severe cases of Covid-19.

A total 105 districts reported more than 10 per cent positivity between February 5 and February 11, data from the ministry show. During the same period, 480 districts reported less than 5 per cent positivity.

Five states currently have more than 10 districts with a positivity rate more than 10 per cent: Rajasthan (17), Kerala (14), and Maharashtra, Arunachal Pradesh, and Mizoram (11 each).

Positivity rates above 5 per cent are considered to be cause for concern. The health ministry has repeatedly asked for local containment and surveillance in districts reporting positivity rates of more than 5 per cent.
