Vadodara: With 102 new cases being reported in the city and district, the total number of Covid-19 cases reached 13,910. The new cases were identified from 3,844 tests conducted since Sunday evening.
Out of the 102 new cases, 42 were from parts of the district outside Vadodara Municipal Corporation (VMC) limits while the remaining 60 are from within the city limits. The trend over the last one month has revealed that the number of cases in the city has gone down even as the numbers outside the city limits have stagnated. Due to this situation, there has been an overall reduction in numbers largely due to the lesser number of cases reported in the city.
With no new deaths being confirmed by the VMC, the death toll due to Covid-19 being the primary cause of death remained at 209. These deaths do not include cases where persons who tested positive for Covid-19 died due to other comorbidities.
As many as 100 persons were discharged from home isolation or hospitals after they recovered from the viral infection. This left 1,597 under treatment including 62 on ventilators or BIPAP machines.
