India is experiencing a recent uptick in active COVID-19 cases, surpassing the 3,000 mark. Kerala is currently reporting the highest number of infections, leading the surge in new cases.

While new cases and deaths are being reported across various states, health officials are emphasizing the relatively low severity of the current infections. The majority of patients are reportedly managing their illness through home care.

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has confirmed that the increase is primarily driven by Omicron subvariants. Authorities are urging citizens to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions, but they have also stressed that there is no cause for major alarm at this time.
