Haridwar bans Ganga Snan on ‘Makar Sankranti’ in view of Omicron spread

The Haridwar district administration has completely banned devotees from taking holy baths in the Ganges on the occasion of Makar Sankranti. This decision was made in light of the emergence of a third wave of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) and a highly contagious variant of Omicron. Entry is also restricted in the “Har ki Pauri” area, which will be under a curfew from 10pm to 6am on January 14, according to an order issued by Haridwar district chief Vinay Shankar Pandey.

The order cited the continued increase in Covid cases and the threat of Omicron variants, noting that new variants of concern have the ability to spread rapidly.

“Given the effective guidelines issued to effectively control Covid-19 infections and the strict prohibition of mass gatherings for religious purposes, the ‘Makar Sankranti/Snan dated January 14’ organised this year was banned by the district administration,” the statement said. The command is spoken in Hindi.

Meanwhile, India has reported 168,063 new Covid cases and 277 related deaths in the past 24 hours, according to the federal Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. More than 400 Omicron infections were also reported during this period, bringing the total number of Omicron to 4,461. Maharashtra continued to lead Omicron with 1,247 cases, followed by Rajasthan (645), Delhi (546), Karnataka (479) and Kerala (350). The overall risk associated with Omicron remains high for a number of reasons, the World Health Organization (WHO) said in its latest technical briefing. Citing current data, the World Health Organization says Omicron has a significant growth advantage over Delta, leading to rapid spread in the community.

“A rapid increase in cases will lead to increased hospitalizations, potentially placing overwhelming demands on the healthcare system and leading to severe morbidity, especially among vulnerable populations,” it added.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is quitting the Late Night programme.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is thinking about leaving his late-night show to devote more time to his son Billy’s continuous struggle with congenital heart problems.

This week, a number of people with knowledge of the situation disclosed that Kimmel intends to leave Jimmy Kimmel Live! after his contract expires in 2025 in order to spend more time with his wife Molly McNearney, who co-head writes the show.

Kimmel’s choice, according to Radar Online, is a result of Billy’s health issues, especially in the wake of Billy’s most recent third open-heart surgery. But now he’s a “healthy kid.”

The Late Night presenter shared the news on Instagram in late May, saying, “We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid.”

Sources close to Radar Online claim that the Kimmels are getting ready to step back from the spotlight. According to an informant, Jimmy and his spouse prioritise their family over notoriety. They know what to do financially, so they’re prepared to step back from the spotlight and concentrate on what matters most.

“Life is too short to waste time on a job that brings you no happiness.”

Kimmel’s spokesperson denied the findings.
Even though Kimmel’s publicist denied any talks regarding his possible resignation and called the claim “silly,” especially in light of his son’s recent surgery.

“Though they’ll likely stay busy producing and developing shows behind the scenes, their main focus will be spending precious time with their family,” an insider was quoted by Perez Hilton.

Billy’s congenital heart issue was initially made public by Kimmel in 2017, not long after Billy was born, along with the difficulties his family was facing. Billy was born with a heart condition, according to an echocardiography, a type of cardiac sonography that was performed, Kimmel disclosed on his show.

“Tetralogy of Fallot associated with pulmonary atresia.” In essence, there is a hole in the wall separating his left and right sides of the heart, and the pulmonary valve was totally obstructed.

Three days after his birth, Billy had his first successful open-heart surgery. A few months later, he had another one. Billy had his third operation last month at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. This was his most recent procedure.
