Assam government had tightened Covid curbs to contain the transmission of the Omicron variant of coronavirus. The state prohibited the entry of non-vaccinated people to public places, except hospitals.
It said that all people are required to carry proof of being fully vaccinated while visiting public places/spaces. The state had allowed classes 9-12 on alternate days and had suspended offline classes up to Class 8.
However, since the pandemic situation has improved and most of the districts are reporting less than 10 positive cases every day during the last 2-3 weeks.
Therefore, the state has withdrawn all the Covid-related curbs from today. Assam's coronavirus tally has risen to 7,23,693 as 198 more people tested positive for the infection, while five fresh fatalities pushed the state's coronavirus death toll to 7,957.
