Across the state of Tamil Nadu yesterday, the number of active Covid-19 cases went below 5000 and this has grabbed the attention of many. It is known that there has been a steady drop in the Coronavirus infection rate now. Out of a total of 388 fresh or new Covid-19 reported in TN , Chennai had just 88 cases only. In TN, TPR has gone down to 3percent and the number of discharges after recovering from Coronavirus infection has been on the rise.
The superb piece of information is that out of all Coronavirus positive patients undergoing treatments across TN just 6% needed hospital admission for treatment. The reason for that was these patients had comorbid conditions like diabetes, BP etc in them. Patients who had mild symptoms like cold and fever have been isolated in their homes. Till now, in TN, the total number of persons who died due to Covid-19 is 38047.
It is learnt that the state health department has proposed to launch a massive campaign involving many celebrities to increase the booster dose coverage.The booster dose vaccination was provided free of cost for the public till 30th of September and till now just 27% of the population in TN have taken the booster shots.
