Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan today exhorted the Delhi government to implement Prime Minister’s Jan Andolan successfully to blunt the momentum of COVID by the end of the year.
 
The Minister today interacted with Lieutenant Governor of Delhi Anil Baijal, Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Kumar Jain in the presence of senior officials, Mayors, Municipal Commissioners, and District Magistrates of the city.
 
Lauding Prime Minister Narendra Modi for initiating the Jan Andolan movement to make the last citizen aware of the virtues of wearing masks, physical distancing, and handwashing, Dr. Harsh Vardhan highlighted that the whole government approach has helped the country curb the COVID crisis effectively. He urged the officers to instill COVID-appropriate behavior among the masses and blunt the momentum of the infectious disease by the end of the year so that it loses its potency.
 
Comparing the COVID trajectory of Delhi with that of the country, Dr. Harsh Vardhan said, the recovery rate of the country is currently more than 92 percent while that of Delhi is 89 percent. He said, against a national case fatality rate of 1.49 percent,
Delhi continues to have a fatality rate of 1.71 percent. The Minister expressed particular concern over the surge in a number of cases and the high positivity rate in the North, Central, North East, East, North West, and South East districts of Delhi.
 
He also reiterated the government’s commitment to vaccinate 20 to 25 Crore citizens including those involved in frontline healthcare by mid-2021.
