New Delhi, January 17, 2022:
Health Minister Satyendar Jain presented a detailed analysis of the corona cases in Delhi today. He stated that corona cases had decreased in Delhi over the last four days. The weekend curfew is proving to be beneficial, as fewer and fewer people are venturing outside, limiting the spread of corona. The number of reported cases is decreasing, but the government is keeping an eye on the trend. So far, 2 crore 85 lakh vaccine doses have been administered in Delhi. Out of all eligible people, 100 percent have received their first dose, around 80 percent have received their second dose, and 1 lakh 27 thousand have received their booster dose.
The vaccination process is running smoothly in Delhi, and the Delhi Government has an adequate supply of vaccines. No prescription is required to get yourself tested if you have any of the corona’s symptoms, he added. The health system in Delhi is in a good shape and we are fully prepared to deal with the most serious of situations. He urged everyone to wear masks at all times and to adhere to all Covid protocols and social distance.
The Health Minister provided extensive details on the city’s covid situation. “The cases in Delhi have been declining for the past four days,” he said. On January 14th, Delhi recorded approximately 24,383 positive cases, while on January 15th, Delhi recorded 20,178 new cases, and on January 16th, Delhi recorded 18,286 positive cases. Today, we can expect far fewer cases than the previous tally. Weekend curfews have played a significant role in this decline. However, this trend indicates that the number of cases in Delhi is decreasing, but the government is still keeping a close eye on the covid cases, and it will take some time to understand the trend forward.
Satyendar Jain congratulated healthcare workers and front-line workers on completing a year-long vaccination drive. “In Delhi, 2 crores 85 lakh people have been vaccinated, 100 percent of those who were eligible for the first dose have been vaccinated, around 80 percent of people have been jabbed with the second dose, and 1 lakh 28 thousand people have been jabbed with a booster dose,” he said. 35,000 of these 1 lakh 27 thousand people are over 60 years old, 32,000 are healthcare workers, and the remaining 60,000 are frontline workers.” He went on to say, “Those who are eligible must get their second dose of vaccination, as well as the booster dose, as soon as possible.”
The Health Minister urged everyone to abide by the Corona regulations and take all necessary precautions. He urged people to wear masks for their own safety and to keep a social distance when entering public places. Through the press, he assured the people of the state that there is no lockdown in Delhi and the migrant workers should not be worried.
