the district reported over 100 cases over the last four consecutive days. It accounts for around 13% of the country's total active cases at present. "People are not showing interest in completing vaccination schedules and are showing poor interest for taking booster dose.
We will now go vaccinate them door to door," said Dr Virender Yadav, the chief medical officer. He said the administration will urge the people to get a booster dose for themselves, and vaccinate the eligible children too.
The sudden spike has left the state and central governments perturbed, with Haryana home minister Anil Vij sending ACS Rajiv Arora to review Covid readiness in the district.
The local administration held a special meeting with all private hospitals and mandated testing of the entire staff, patients, and symptomatic attendants employed there.
