BMC to take a call next week on further relaxing of curbs

“Most norms were relaxed a week ago (January 31). Ideally, we should provide a 15-day period to observe the effects of the unlocking. Hence, we will take a call next week on further easing.”

BMC executive health officer Dr Mangala Gomare said: “It will be two years in March since the Covid lockdown began in Mumbai. Even the third wave peak has declined and we are down to the tail, which is between 300 and 400 at the moment.’’ Pointing out that hospital admissions are down, she added: “Epidemiologically speaking, it is time to open up but the state Covid-19 task force will take a call,’’ she said.

Chief secretary Debashis Chakrabarty said the government will hold status quo as of now and assess whether the situation is ripe for complete unlocking during the week.
