UP maintains Covid recovery trend, only 16 fresh +ve cases

Thursday, 09 September 2021 | PNS | Lucknow

Maintaining the positive recovery trend -- high recoveries and a low number of fresh COVID-19 cases -- has reduced the active Covid caseload in Uttar Pradesh to 214. Uttar Pradesh recorded 16 fresh coronavirus positive cases in the last 24 hours.

 

Another 28 COVID-19 patients recovered as fresh infections also came down by 99 per cent from its peak of 38,055 on April 24.

 

With strict screening, treatment and vaccination, 31 districts have given a boost to Uttar Pradesh’s the fight against coronavirus as a result of which the state’s recovery rate has climbed up to 98.7 per cent.

 

The active and fresh cases have declined to zero in Aligarh, Amroha, Ayodhya, Baghpat, Ballia, Balrampur, Banda, Basti, Bahraich, Bhadohi, Bijnor, Chandauli, Chitrakoot, Deoria, Etah, Fatehpur, Ghazipur, Gonda, Hamirpur, Hapur, Hardoi, Hathras, Kaushambi, Lalitpur, Mahoba, Muzaffarnagar, Pilibhit, Rampur, Shamli, Siddharthnagar and Sonbhadra.

 

In what comes as another big relief, none of the 75 districts in Uttar Pradesh have reported fresh cases of coronavirus infection in double-digits lately.

 

Ramping up of daily testing to detect the coronavirus infection has helped in the fight against the second wave. True to the spirit of the trace, test, and treat mechanism, daily sample testing has ranged between three lakh and two lakh in Uttar Pradesh.

 

Emerging as a leader in conducting maximum Covid tests, Uttar Pradesh has tested as many as 7,40,38,991 samples for novel coronavirus infection so far. Uttar Pradesh is the first state to have crossed the milestone of conducting seven crore Covid tests. The testing was particularly expanded to reach the rural pockets of the state.

 

Becoming self-reliant in terms of producing the life-saving oxygen, as many as 395 of the 555 oxygen plants have already been established and are functional while work on the rest is going on in Uttar Pradesh.

 

Twenty-five oxygen plants were functional in the state before the government took the step of setting up more at a rapid pace to ensure the availability of sufficient medical oxygen in view of any possible future requirement.
