Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday said COVID cases had dipped significantly and the second wave had also waned but the Delhi government continued to make preparations to tackle an imminent third wave. Requesting the Centre to import vaccines, Mr. Kejriwal said both Moderna and Pfizer had refused to sell vaccines directly to State governments. “Now the cases are reducing significantly. For the country, this is the second wave but for Delhi, this is the fourth wave. This time, in the last week of April, around 28,000 cases were recorded but now they have come down to 1,500. The infection rate had reached 36% in the last week of April, which is now 2.5%,” Mr. Kejriwal said.
