New Delhi: With major cities witnessing fall in new Covid-19 cases in the state, Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope on Saturday (January 29) said the peak of the third coronavirus wave is over.
"Yes, I can say that peak of the third wave is over now because COVID-19 cases are reducing in cities like Mumbai, Thane, Raigad, Palghar where the situation was worst during the recent wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although in some parts of Maharashtra still, the cases are moving upward," Tope told ANI.
He added that although cases are on rise in some cities, however, it is not a cause of worry. "However, in the cities like Nashik, Nagpur, Pune, Aurangabad number is still rising but there is no reason to worry even in these places because infected people are getting cured in 5 to 7 days with simple treatment and medicines," the Health Minister stated, adding that the daily Covid infections are going down.
