India’s biggest slum cluster and one of the largest in the world, Dharavi seems to be free of fresh Covid infections caused by the recent wave of spikes. Over the past 15 days, no fresh Covid cases have been reported from the 18 Aapla Dawakhana centres in the vicinity. As for the rest of the city, of the 24 administrative wards under BMC jurisdiction, three wards didn’t report a single fresh case in the last week.
According to civic officials and private practitioners, the demand for Covid tests and vaccines has dropped drastically after the World Health Organisation (WHO) called off the Covid emergency. The latest surge in cases began mid-February, with Mumbai reporting over 250 cases per day. However, over the past week, the city has been reporting less than 50 new cases per day.
