KOLKATA: The number of Covid hospitalisations has been creeping up in Kolkata, along with the uptick in fresh cases across Bengal. At least three private hospitals in the city currently have, between them, a dozen Covid patients. This comes after a period of no Covid patient in hospital for about two months.
The positivity rate has also started climbing across private laboratories and hospitals. Cases, though, remain mild, preventing a sharp upward spiral in admissions.
