With the second wave of Covid-19 seeing more children getting affected, Aurangabad has witnessed a sharp drop in paediatric cases in May following a rise in earlier months.

“We used to get 15-20 cases of 0 to 18 years per day on an average. Now since May 20, it is less or around 10,” said Astik Kumar Pandey, commissioner of Aurangabad Municipal Corporation. He said paediatric cases have been 10-15 per cent of total cases.
