Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain on Thursday said a total of 1,044 cases of mucormycosis (black fungus) have been reported in the city so far. “Till yesterday (Wednesday), 1,044 black fungus cases were there in Delhi. Out of these, around 92 patients have recovered fully and around 89 people have lost their lives due to black fungus,” the Minister said. The others are still under treatment at different healthcare facilities, he said. The test positivity rate of COVID-19 has remained less than 1% for four consecutive days. This is a “good sign”, said Mr. Jain and urged people to follow COVID-appropriate behaviour. “My appeal to every citizen is that please maintain social distancing, wear a mask all the time, and wash your hands from time to time.”More Related News
