The last time the city’s positivity rate was below 9.94% was on March 13, when it stood at 9.62% MUMBAI: Gains from the lockdown-like curbs are beginning to show, though only in Mumbai and a couple of other districts. The city’s daily positivity rate (PR) has dropped 50%— from 20.8% on April 1 to 9.9% on April 30—giving hope that the second wave could be ebbing. Experts said the infection continues to rage in the rest of Maharashtra with Nagpur, Nashik and Thane showing a positivity of more than 30%. Daily PR, statewide, remains as high as 23%, declining by barely 2% in the last 30 days. BMC chief Iqbal Singh Chahal said Mumbai was perhaps the only city in India with such a low PR at present. “Our positivity rate is in single digit now despite carrying out 44,000 tests,” he said.
