There has been a marginal drop in daily Covid cases in Mumbai in the last 24 hours with 2,255 new cases being recorded on Friday as against 2,366 cases reported on Thursday.

On Friday, Maharashtra reported 4,165 new infections, which pushed up the active cases beyond the 20,000-mark in the state.

Dr Ishwar Gilada, consultant in infectious diseases, said that a few pockets of India are witnessing the surge in cases due to waning immunity — both natural immunity due to past infection or due to vaccine. “It can be an immune escape as newer variants and sub-variants are known for immune escape. Besides, higher gap between the second and third dose and lack of clarity in policy for free third dose to below-60 population are the major contributing factor behind the spike,” he said.
