"The weekly positivity rate has also increased to 2.41 percent. The increase in active cases and positivity rate is a matter of concern,'' he added.

He said the corona infection is a serious disease and many problems occur even after the recovery from it. People should not become negligent and strictly follow the health protocol, he added.
