Those who are not residents of the city are emerging to be the biggest carriers of the infection right now because 40% of the daily positive cases are from this group, who are getting detected while being treated in hospitals.

But the positivity rate has dipped remarkably at the airport and in RAILWAY stations. However, markets are still being seen as super-spreaders in residential colonies, especially in East Guwahati.

Earlier truck parkings, warehouses and DEFENCE establishments in East Guwahati were in the radar but of late the market places have emerged as spreaders. Health officials said there is no community spread reported recently, though in some of the apartments and densely populated pockets, more people have turned positive.
