Although the number of new COVID-19 infections continued to drop by the thousands, some districts in the State continued to see a steady rise. Only in four districts, fresh cases crossed the 1,000 mark, according to the daily bulletin from the Public Health department.
On Tuesday across the State, 16,096 persons of the 1,22,120 tested through RT-PCR were positive for COVID-19 infection. Among them were three international passengers — one each from Sri Lanka, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.
