While health experts are discussing the possibility of a fourth wave of COVID, the rise in the number of infection cases in the national capital Delhi has forced the administration to re-impose a mandate on wearing masks.
Within 18 days of lifting the mask mandate, Delhi saw a sharp rise in the number of cases. For the first time since 2020, the country had witnessed COVID cases below 1000 in the beginning of April. After a brief respite, the cases have again climbed up till 2,067 as on Wednesday.
