At 2-3, Noida’s daily cases UP's highest

NOIDA: For the past three days, Noida has reported the maximum fresh cases in the state. It has also seen the highest number of active cases. Prayagraj and Lucknow had maximum active cases till three days ago.
The number of cases is not alarming yet. While Noida has been registering 2-3 cases daily, all other districts have not been reporting any fresh case of late.Neighbouring Ghaziabad also has also stopped reporting fresh cases for almost a week now. It has just two active cases as of now.
Meanwhile, Noida had 17 active cases till Saturday and two new cases were added to the tally. The district has reported a total of over 63,000 cases so far.
Officials said the cases were not a cause for concern as the positivity rate was still low. They said that since the district has a large floating population and many of its residents travel to nearby cities for work, reducing the cases to zero was extremely difficult.
“We are tracking the numbers closely. We are taking all precautions, asking people to follow Covid protocols and also keeping the testing numbers high. There is no need to worry now. But people should be vigilant in their social interactions,” said Suhas LY, the district magistrate.
