Mysuru COVID-19 spike has ‘links’ to Bengaluru’s rising Test Positivity Rate
The Hindu
The spike in Covid-19 cases in Mysuru following a surge in Bengaluru indicates that people returning to Mysuru from Bengaluru or the daily commuters to Bengaluru could be driving the alarming surge in Mysuru
The sudden and exponential spike in COVID-19 cases in Mysuru has a connection with the sharp rise in test positivity rate (TPR) in Bengaluru, which has reported a rapid surge in infections in the last one week.
Like in the previous waves, Mysuru was next to Bengaluru in terms of number of cases, and also emerged as one of the major COVID-19 hotspots in Karnataka with the second highest number of deaths reported after Bengaluru. At one point of time, Mysuru had reported 3,000-plus cases on a single day, triggering an alarm in 2021.
