New Delhi: The high level of comprehensive country-wide testing (crossing 9.5 crore today) has resulted in national cumulative Positivity Rate falling under 8%. This trend has sustained without a break for four days. The cumulative Positivity Rate is 7.94% now and is on a continuous decline, according to an official statement.

The decline in the cumulative positivity rate has demonstrated that the rate of spread of infection is being effectively contained.

Higher testing across wide regions leads to early identification of positive cases, prompt tracking through efficient surveillance and tracing, and timely & effective treatment in homes/facilities and in hospitals for the severe cases. These measures in tandem eventually lead to lower mortality rate, the Press Information Bureau (PIB) statement added.

The average Daily Positivity Rate is 6.13% for the third week of October. This is a result of successful TEST, TRACK, TRACE, TREAT and TECHNOLOGY strategy of the Central government effectively followed by States/UTs.

India continues to report a trend of steadily declining active cases. The progressive decline continued for the third day after the active cases dropped below the 8 lakh mark after a month and-a-half

7,72,055  India’s active caseload

66 lakhs plus the total recovered cases

66,399 patients recovered and discharged in the last 24 hours
