Coronavirus Omicron LIVE Updates | School ID cards of children will be accepted for COVID-19 vaccination, says RS Sharma

In view of the daily surge in COVID-19 cases, the Delhi government announced on December 26 that it would impose a curfew from 11pm to 5am. The government stated that the restrictions will take effect on December 27. The health department reported 290 new cases today, which is the highest level since June 10. One death case was also recorded during the same period. On Monday, the blocked Chinese city of Xi’an tightened Covid-19 control measures to the “strictest” level, banning residents from driving around towns to control the country’s worst epidemic in 21 months. As Beijing prepares to welcome thousands of overseas tourists for the February Winter Olympics, China adheres to a “zero Covid” strategy of strict border restrictions, long-term quarantine, and targeted lockdowns. But the historic city of Xi’an—13 million residents facing a fifth day of home quarantine—is at the center of the outbreak, which has pushed the number of daily infections across the country to its highest level since March last year. Bharatiya Janata’s MP Valen Gandhi quoted a statement from the center on Monday criticizing several states, including Uttar Pradesh, for imposing curfews to curb Covid. He said that we should decide whether our first priority is to control the disease or to be addicted to it. Show the power during the election. He said that policymakers should be on the front line to encourage ordinary people to stay at home.

When criticizing the decision to curfew at night, he said: “After hundreds of thousands of people have gathered to participate in the rally during the day, the curfew at night is against the wisdom of ordinary people.” He said that given the limited health infrastructure in Uttar Pradesh, we must honestly decide whether our first priority is to contain the dangerous variant of the Omicron coronavirus or to demonstrate power during the polls.

Gandhi pointed out that the greatest spread usually occurs during the day because there are fewer people on the road at night, and called for a strong reduction in social gatherings that may become Covid clusters. He cited the center’s statement to the Maharashtra government in March 2021, and emphasized that curfews, weekend lockdowns and other measures have very limited impact on curbing or suppressing transmission. “Therefore, the government should focus on strict and effective containment strategies,” it once said. Gandhi called for a holistic strategy.
