New Delhi: After a fall in daily coronavirus cases a day earlier, Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain on Saturday (January 15) said that the Covid-19 infections have reached their peak in the national capital.

Delhi had reported 24,383 new Covid-19 cases and 34 fatalities, as per the state health bulletin on Friday. While on Thursday, the national capital had logged its highest single-day spike since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic with 28,867 daily infections.

The UT health minister said the government will consider easing restrictions when the Covid-19 cases decline to touch 15,000. "Let's wait. The cases have started declining. They came down to 24,000 yesterday and will come down to 20000 today. Let them come down to 15,000 or below and then we will see,” PTI quoted Jain as saying.
