Amid rising COVID-19 cases, Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain on Saturday ruled out the possibility of lockdowns. “First it was said that it’s a 14-day cycle between infection and recovery. Experts said if all activities close for 21 days, it won’t spread. Lockdown was extended, but it didn’t stop (the spread) completely. So, I don’t think lockdown is the solution,” the minister said.
