New Delhi: The complete COVID-19 lockdown in Delhi which is in effect till Monday (April 26, 2021) morning is likely to be extended further due to the deteriorating situation. The idea behind the brief lockdown was that it will control the cases and give time to boost the health infrastructure, but the situation has gone from bad to worse. In such a situation, extending the lockdown, by maybe another week, is a possible option, a source in the Delhi government told PTI news agency.
With Covid-related deaths mounting amidst a healthcare system stretched beyond its limit, the Delhi government today extended the ongoing curfew by a week. The restrictions that were imposed on April 20 will now remain in place at least till 5 am on May 3.
“The coronavirus situation had worsened, which is why we started a six-day lockdown last week. It is scheduled to end tomorrow. But the infections are continuing to rise. In view of this, everybody agrees that we need to extend the restrictions to curb the spread further,” Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said.
Since the curfew was imposed, while the number of reported cases has come down marginally, the number of deaths have increased. From 28,395 new Covid cases on April 20, the national capital registered 24,103 cases yesterday (April 24), but the daily death toll surged from 277 to 357, the highest ever recorded. Recent data suggests that the positivity rate has increased to 36 per cent from 25 per cent two weeks ago. An
