However, the number of recoveries has been smaller than the number of new cases in the last 24 hours – 13,543. This is the second day in a row that the number of recoveries has been smaller than the number of new cases in the country.

 

India reported 13,198 recoveries as of Friday, compared to 14,348 new cases. If this trend continues over the following few weeks, it could signal the start of a new pandemic wave in the country.

In a move that will bring relief to shopowners in the national capital, the Delhi government has lifted the 8 pm deadline for shops following a slide in Covid cases.

The relaxation, which will come into force from Monday, will apply to all shops, including those in shopping complexes and malls. Also, restaurants in the city can now stay open beyond 10 pm.

Announcing the decision, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, “Till now, markets in Delhi had permission to stay open till 8 pm. As the number of Covid cases have dropped, this restriction is being lifted.”

The Chief Minister’s announcement came as Delhi reported 19 new Covid cases today and zero deaths with a positivity rate of 0.03 per cent. The number of active cases in the national capital now stands at 430.

During the second wave of Covid infections that struck in April-May this year, Delhi witnessed horrifying scenes of people scrambling for hospital beds and oxygen cylinders. The city had then recorded a single-day high of 28,395 cases and its positivity rate had crossed the 35 per cent mark.

To bring the situation under control, strict curbs had been put in place and all shops, except those dealing in essential items, were ordered to shut. This came as a double blow to shopowners already reeling under the impact of last year’s nationwide lockdown.

In June, when the city was recording about 200 cases daily, the Delhi government allowed shops and restaurants to open between 10 am and 8 pm.

A new form of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that might be even worse than Delta could develop, according to WHO’s chief scientist, Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, on Friday. According to several scientific estimates, the third wave of the epidemic has already started in India. Dr. Swaminathan disputed worries that the third wave would disproportionately affect youngsters and said it was still too early to let down the defenses.

Adults and children had resistance in 65 percent of cases, as per the ICMR’s serosurvey, and according to Dr. Swaminathan. However, these results show that kids have been minimally impacted by Covid.

As the United Kingdom prepares for dropping most of the pandemic-induced restrictions on July 19, experts are concerned about the government’s approach amid rising cases of coronavirus disease (Covid-19). The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (AMRC) on Friday warned that “things will get worse before they get better.” The coordinating body of the UK and Ireland’s 23 medical royal colleges and faculties said in a statement that the country is already in the turmoil of the third wave of coronavirus, highlighting the dramatic rise in Covid-19 cases.

AMRC said the National Health Service (NHS) is currently under unprecedented pressure for a combination of reasons, not all of which are yet clear. “People who stayed away from the NHS during the pandemic are now coming forward, some of them with more serious problems because of the delay in seeking help,” they added.

On Friday, the UK reported more than 35,000 infections, the highest in over five months. On average, it has been recording about 410 cases per million people over the past week, one the highest cases in the world per capita. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has branded the July 19 reopening as “Freedom Day” but experts are worried about the message.

Prof Helen Stokes-Lampard, chair of AMRC, told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that “there seems to be a misapprehension that life will return to normal from then [July 19], and that we can throw away all the precautions, and frankly, that would be dangerous.
