With the third extension of Maharashtra’s lockdown-like restrictions ending on June 1, State Health Minister Rajesh Tope hinted that COVID-19 curbs in districts reporting a significant decline in cases could be eased. Mr. Tope said restrictions could be lifted in a phased manner next month if the case positivity rate drops below 10%, and 50% of beds in the State are vacant. “A decision will be taken after a review meeting chaired by Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray,” Mr. Tope said.
