Maharashtra on Wednesday reported two deaths from COVID-19 and a total of 87 new cases. Officially, the state has had 10 cases of the JN.1 variant, with all patients having mild symptoms and having recovered. However, knowledge of the impact of reinfections, which many may experience if cases surge, is limited. Considering the existing knowledge about COVID and its long-term effects, doctors have urged citizens not to be dismissive and to take ample rest to recover well.
Cases have been mild, and so far, no serious cases have been observed,” said Dr Rahul Pandit, part of Maharashtra’s previous COVID-19 task force and chair of the ICU Unit at Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital. On Wednesday, Maharashtra saw two COVID-related deaths — one in Sangli and one in Pune and 87 new cases. Of these, 19 were in Mumbai, bringing the total to 36 in Mumbai circle, which includes neighbouring areas like Thane, Navi Mumbai and Raigad.
