Mumbai: “If the Covid-19 situation remains the same, Maharashtra can get into another lockdown,” said Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray on Friday in his address to the residents at 8:30 pm. This comes hours after eateries, bars and restaurants in Pune were announced shut for seven days starting April 3 in view of a substantial rise in COVID-19 cases recently.
The cases have been high in the district despite Pune surpassing Mumbai’s daily vaccination figures. The state capital has been recording impressive coverage numbers ever since the vaccination drive opened on January 16 but recent data shows Pune region has been consistently recording over 35,000 doses administered per day, higher than the Mumbai suburban region, Times of India (TOI) reported.
