Delhi on Tuesday reported 144 coronavirus cases and one fatality, while the positivity rate stood at 0.39 per cent, according to data shared by the health department here on Thursday. The Delhi government did not issue the health bulletin on Wednesday.
Including the latest reported cases, the national capital’s case count increased to 18,63,345, while the death toll stood at 26,144, the health bulletin stated.
Meanwhile, as many as 3,837 Covid-19 vaccines were administered to children between 12 and 14 years in Delhi on Wednesday as the vaccination exercise for this age group began amid a steady decline in the number of new infections.
However, with the Covid-19 vaccination drive thrown open to children between the ages of 12 and 14 years just two days after it was announced, the government’s CoWIN portal had not been updated to allow booking for these slots. This resulted in very few children walking into vaccination sites, with 3,837 shots administered on Wednesday.
