Covid is moving towards the endemic stage, said health ministry sources even as the infections clocked a fresh high in several months.
Covid cases in the country will rise for the next 10-12 days and then subside, said government sources today, asserting that there's no need to worry over the latest uptick in infections across the country.
The infection is now in the endemic stage, said health ministry sources even as the infections clocked a fresh high in many months. In an endemic stage, an infection is restricted to a particular region whereas in pandemic, the infection spreads to a bigger region or even worldwide.
India recorded 7,830 fresh cases in the last 24 hours, the highest in over seven months, showed the latest government data.
Though the infection may rise, hospitalisation will remain low, the sources asserted.
