Although there has been a slight decline in the number of new cases in the last one week, the State’s average Test Positivity Rate (TPR) for the last seven days (May 10 to May 16) continues to remain as high as 31.16%. What is worrisome is that the TPR in at least 14 districts is higher than the State average during the seven days prior to May 15. At 41.26%, Ballari has the highest TPR followed by 35.69% in Uttara Kannada. Chamarajanagar, Hassan, Gadag, Mysuru, Tumakuru, Udupi, Dharwad, Kodagu, Bengaluru Urban, Bagalkot, Shivamogga, and Vijayapura have a TPR higher than the State average. TPR in the last seven days is the lowest in Chitradurga and Bidar at 9.28% and 9.67% respectively.More Related News
