Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said the ongoing wave of the Covid-19 pandemic in the Capital is not as serious as the previous waves and hence there is no need of imposing any lockdown. “We will be reviewing the situation. In future, if there is any decision in this regard, I will consult before taking any such decision,” the Chief Minister said, adding that though it is being considered the second wave in the country, it is the fourth wave for Delhi.

An emergency meeting was called at Kejriwal’s residence in view of the increasing Covid-19 cases in the city.

“Cases are spreading fast. This is concerning but there is nothing to panic about. In October, when daily cases were around 3,000-4,000, like it is now, there were many patients in ICU. There were many deaths as well. But this wave is less serious than the previous ones. More people are under home isolation,” Kejri

Thanking the Centre for allowing any person above the age of 45 years to get the vaccines against Covid-19, Kejriwal urged the government to allow vaccination at a mass level, on a war footing.

Daily Covid-19 infections in the Capital is on a steady rise since March 15. From 400 cases per day, the city moved to record 2790 fresh cases on Thursday.

In December 2020, Delhi recorded daily cases as high as this. On December 8, the city recorded 3,188 cases and on December 6, there were 2,706 fresh infections. In November 2020, Delhi’s daily cases crossed the 8,000-mark, which was the highest spike ever.

Taking early action against another wave, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority has already announced its decision of conducting random testing of travellers coming to Delhi from other states where Covid-19 cases are high.
