India reported 13,154 COVID-19 cases on Thursday, with 961 of them confirmed to be of the Omicron variant. At a weekly briefing here, Union Health Ministry officials expressed concern over the “sudden rise” in cases in several cities.
Officials said six States — Maharashtra, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, Karnataka and Gujarat — were of particular concern given the rise in test positivity and the number of weekly cases. Kerala and Maharashtra, however, continue to account for nearly half the cases.
