India has reported 774 new cases of Covid-19, bringing the total number of active cases to 4,187.

India has seen an increase in COVID-19 cases in a single day of 774, with 4,187 active cases as of Saturday, according to the Union health ministry.

The ministry’s data updated at 8 am shows that two deaths were reported in a span of 24 hours, one from Gujarat and one from Tamil Nadu.

Up until December 5, there were double digits of cases per day. However, due to the cold weather and the appearance of a new COVID-19 variety, JN.1, the number of cases started to grow once more.

According to government sources, the greatest single-day increase of 841 cases after December 5 was recorded on December 31, 2023, or 0.2% of the peak cases recorded in May 2021.

More than 92% of the 4,187 current patients are being treated at home in isolation.

A government source stated, “The currently available data suggests that the JN.1 variant is neither leading to an exponential rise in the new cases nor a surge in the hospitalisation and mortality.”

Three waves of COVID-19 have struck India in the past; the Delta wave, which is expected to last from April to June 2021, has the highest daily case and fatality rate. On May 7, 2021, 4,14,188 instances and 3,915 deaths were recorded, marking the peak.

Over 4.5 crore people have been afflicted and over 5.3 lakh have perished nationwide since the outbreak started in early 2020.

According to the ministry’s website, nearly 4.4 crore individuals have recovered from the illness, meaning that the country’s recovery rate is 98.81 percent.

As per the website, a total of 220.67 crore COVID-19 dosages have been provided across the nation thus far.
