The number of active Covid19 cases in Delhi now stands at 5,141, down from 5,559 the previous day. As many as 3,729 patients are in home isolation, the bulletin showed.
Of the 9,422 beds reserved for Covid-19 patients in various Delhi hospitals, 494 were occupied.
There are 305 containment zones in the city, it added.
Despite the high positivity rate, the city government is not implementing the graded response action plan (GRAP) devised by the Delhi Disaster Management Authority since hospital admissions are low.
The GRAP, which came into force in August last year, stipulated measures to be taken by the government in accordance with the positivity rate and bed occupancy for locking and unlocking of various activities.
The number of daily Covid-19 cases in Delhi had touched the record high of 28,867 on January 13 this year during the third wave of the pandemic. The city had recorded a positivity rate of 30.6 percent on January 14, the highest during the third wave of the pandemic.
