8 new Covid infections in Rajasthan, active cases drop to 86

JAIPUR: There has been a continuous dip in Covid cases in the state as eight persons tested positive for Covid on Friday. However, the health department has been on the wait-and-watch mode and has advised the public not to be complacent and continue following Covid-appropriate behaviour. Also, there has been a continuous dip in the number of active cases, which are now 86. No deaths due to Covid were reported.

Since August 1, there has been no Covid deaths, which has been the saving grace. Also, patients with mild symptoms are seen at the hospitals. “People are getting admitted to the hospitals as a precaution even if they don’t have severe symptoms. A very negligible number of patients has oxygen dependency,” Dr Ajeet Singh, superintendent, RUHS told TOI.

In Jaipur, only two cases of Covid were found, which came from Gopalpura and Bhankrota. Apart from Jaipur, one case each came from Alwar, Bikaner, Jalore, Jodhpur, Nagaur and Sikar.

As far as active cases are concerned, the state is left with 86 active cases.
