According to the Union Ministry of Health, the country has been relieved of the rising incidence of Covid Positive Cases. The death toll in the third wave is lower than in the second wave, and the number of beds in hospitals is higher than the second wave. "The vaccine has had an effect," they said. As a result, the death toll has dropped.
However, the information provided by the Union Ministry of Health will certainly bring relief. The third wave is more prevalent in the country than the second wave, but the number of deaths due to hospital vacancies is much lower. According to Union Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan, as of January 20, 2022, only 380 people had died in Covid. By April 30, 2021, 3,059 people had died in Covid. There are currently more than 19 lakh active cases. As of April 2021, there were more than 31 lakh active cases. Odisha is one of the top 10 states in the country in terms of active cases.

"It simply came to our notice then. At first glance, the rate at which the infection escalated was declining. The most reassuring thing is that there is no pressure on health care. The ICU is empty when there is no need for oxygen. Of the 88,000 active cases, only 1,230 are hospitalised. Sundargarh, Khurdha, Cuttack and Sambalpur, which have the highest number of infections, have been asked to increase surveillance. The government has called for an end to the practice.
