Telangana recorded 7,430 new coronavirus infections on Saturday, a marginal drop from the previous day’s 7,754 cases.
Over the past three days, around 77,000 samples are being examined on a daily basis, keeping the cases in the 7,400-7,800 range. From April 8-24, over 1 lakh tests were being conducted per day. The highest of 10,122 infections were detected on April 26 when 99,638 samples were tested.
On April 28, Director of Public Health G. Srinivasa Rao claimed that the second wave was “stabilising” and the next three to four weeks were crucial to bring the situation under control. This led to doubts among people on how it was stabilising without many people observing COVID-appropriate behaviour and in the absence of any restriction on movement.

743 new infections in Greater Hyderabad region; active cases close to 43,000
COVID-19 infections and fatalities are consistently climbing north as the second wave of the pandemic gets fiercer by the day. Close to 6,000 cases and 18 deaths were recorded on Monday, both new records in the State.
While samples were put to test on Monday, a total of 5,929 turned up positive for coronavirus. With the 18 fresh deaths, the fatality figures have risen to 1,856.
Until April 1, the cases were restricted till 1,000 a day. Until two weeks ago, the number of districts which were recording cases in triple digits on a daily basis could be counted on the fingers, as most of them recorded less than 10 cases. That has changed with only five of the total 33 districts seeing double-digit cases.
