In addition, Mumbai saw the highest-ever daily case count of 5,185 new cases.
According to the health bulletin, the state’s total number of Covid-19 cases has now reached 25,64,881.
The new surge in cases came just three days after Maharashtra saw its largest single-day increase of 30,535 cases on March 21, 2021. Late September 11th, Maharashtra had the highest number of incidents, with 24,886.
According to the daily health bulletin, the death count is raised to 53,684 after registering today 95 virus deaths.
During the day, 15,098 patients were released from the hospitals and a total of 22,62,593 were recovered. Level of positive impact: 88.21%.
In the province, there are currently 2,47,299 active incidents. The fatality figure for cases is 2.09%.
For the first time since the disease outbreak Mumbai posted the highest-ever single-day surge of over 5,000 new Covid-19 cases on Wednesday.
Furthermore, in the last 24 hours, the Pune district announced 6,741 new coronavirus cases, bringing the total number of cases to 4,86,262.
During this time, the district’s death rate increased to 9,682, with 42 people succumbing to the virus, he stated.
In the Pune Municipal Corporation, 3,509 cases were found out of a total of 6,741. A total of 1,410 people were discharged from the city’s hospitals.
Meanwhile, the Union Health Ministry announced on Wednesday that the majority of active Covid-19 cases were located in only two states’ districts. Mumbai is one of these districts.
During a study of the Covid-19 situation in the region, the ministry stated that nine districts in Maharashtra and one in Karnataka are among the top ten districts with active COVID-19 cases.
Pune, Nagpur, Mumbai, Thane, Nashik, Aurangabad, Bengaluru Urban, Nanded, Jalgaon, and Akola are the top ten districts with the most active incidents, according to the ministry.
The increase, according to reports prepared by the government’s expert panel, cannot be traced to a single cause. Elections for civic bodies, pandemic fatigue that translated into breaking social distancing rules, not wearing masks in public spaces, and overcrowding on public transportation all added to the increase.
