India today recorded 10,158 news Covid cases cases, 30 per cent more than yesterday. The active cases in the country have now gone up to 44,998, according to data by the Union health ministry.

The infection count reported today - a sharp jump from yesterday when 7,830 cases were reported - has taken the total number of Covid cases reported in the country to 4,42,10,127.

Government sources yesterday said that Covid has entered the endemic stage in India and cases will rise for the next 10-12 days, after which the infections will subside.

The XBB.1.16 subvariant of Omicron, which is driving the latest surge, is not a cause of worry and vaccines are effective against it, health ministry officials said.
