Containment zones to be redrawn; Delhi prepares for Sero Survey

NEW DELHI: At a high-level COVID-19 review meeting between Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Home Minister Amit Shah, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and L-G Anil Baijal on Sunday, top officials have now decided to redraw containment zones in the Capital and implement stricter monitoring of home isolation patients and containment zones. In addition, it was also agreed upon that a Serological Survey would be conducted in the city to check for community transmission.

Delhi on Sunday reported 3,000 new COVID-19 cases and 63 deaths, taking the total tally of cases here to 59,746 and the death toll to 2,175. However, the daily testing numbers saw a significant increase, with the Capital conducting over 18,000 tests in the last 24 hours, leading to the daily positivity rate dipping to around 16 per cent. While 12,106 patients are currently under home isolation, the total active cases here are 24,558.
