India’s active Covid-19 case tally rose to 7,121 with 306 fresh cases reported in the last 24 hours, according to the latest data from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare released on Wednesday. Six deaths were also recorded during the same period.
Of the six fatalities, three were reported from Kerala, two from Karnataka and one from Maharashtra. Among the deceased, one was a 43-year-old male with a compromised immune system.
The other victims were elderly and suffered from pre-existing respiratory and chronic health conditions.
Kerala continues to top the Covid-19 chart among states, reporting 2,223 active cases. It also logged the most new infections in the past 24 hours, with 170 fresh cases.
Gujarat followed with 114 new cases, pushing its active tally to 1,223. Delhi, too, witnessed a rise, with active cases reaching 757.
Health experts have advised against a mass booster vaccination campaign amid the recent uptick in Covid-19 cases, urging instead a targeted approach focused on high-risk groups such as the elderly, immunocompromised individuals, and those with chronic illnesses.
Citing widespread hybrid immunity, developed through prior infections and substantial vaccine coverage, they argue that additional doses for the general public are not necessary at this point.
