The government on Thursday said there is stabilisation in the Covid-19 situation in the country, and that there is a need to be cautious for the next couple of months as it is also the period of festivals. It added that 20 per cent of India’s adult population have received both doses of Covid-19 vaccine and 62 per cent have got at least one dose.
“Overall there is stabilisation in Covid-19 cases and Kerala has also reported drop in cases.... In the coming two-three months, we need to be cautious that there is no upsurge.... It is also the period of festivities and also when flu cases rise...we request everyone to be careful and retain the gain that we have achieved (in the pandemic management),” an official said at a press briefing.
