New Delhi, July 8 (SocialNews.XYZ) Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday sought a detailed report from the Delhi government's Health Secretary on factors responsible for COVID-19 deaths in the city. The death rate in the city has seen a sharp decline since June.
The analytical report on deaths will aid the implementation of more stringent measures to reduce deaths, the city government said, adding that it will also help mitigate the other causes that have added to the casualties, such as co-morbidities, age, and health condition.
In June, the capital city had recorded the highest single-day spike of 120 deaths, which has now gone down to 50. The measures such as the increase in the number of ICU beds, installation of more oxygen beds, plasma banks have reduced the death rate and the positivity ratio.
"To bring the death rate to zero, the Delhi government will prepare further steps to be taken after obtaining a detailed analysis of the Covid-19 deaths from the Health Secretary," the government said in a statement.
Earlier this week, the total number of cases in the city has crossed the grim mark of one lakh. Over 3,000 people have died due to the deadly disease in the national capital.
