Thiruvananthapuram: The outbreak of the second wave of corona in the country may have subsided, but the epidemic has spread tremendously in Kerala. About 20 thousand new cases are being reported daily in the state, which is almost half of the entire country. Now state Health Minister Veena George has warned that in the next few days the number of new cases coming daily may increase by double.
According to a report published on the New Indian Express, George has said in the assembly that 90 percent of the cases in the state are of the delta variant. Notorious for its high infectious potential, this variant may cause more havoc in Kerala in the next few days. The Health Minister says that the third wave is on the verge of coming but the state has not yet fully recovered from the second wave. In such situations, corona restrictions cannot be completely removed.
Restrictions will be relaxed only when the lives of the citizens of the state are safe.
He said- the government is of the opinion that if the restrictions will be relaxed only when the life of the citizens of the state is safe. If the restrictions are lifted soon, the state will have to pay a heavy price.
The opposition is accusing the government, the Leader of the Opposition said – the return of police rule
