Nadu became the fourth State, after Maharashtra, Kerala and Karnataka, to cross a total of one million COVID-19 cases. The number of people who have so far tested positive account for roughly 1.3% of the total Population<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With 10,941 cases reported on Monday, the State took just 14 days to go from nine lakh cases to 10 lakh cases. An analysis of the number of days it took to cross every one lakh case showed that this was the shortest period taken to add one more lakh to the tally, indicating the sharp rise being seen during the second wave of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Tamil Nadu stood 11th in the number of tests performed per million (TPM) population. With a TPM of 2.69 lakh, the total number of tests conducted so far accounted for more than 25% of the population. The State has relied completely on RT-PCR tests, unlike most other States that opted for antibody tests too.<\/p>\n

Though the State had a relatively low overall case fatality rate (CFR) of 1.31%, it stood 12th in the country and the value was higher than the national Average<\/a> of 1.19%. Deaths have begun to increase in the past two weeks, with more than 40 deaths reported in the last two days. The last time the State reported more than 40 deaths was during October 2020.<\/p>\n

The analysis also showed that the Percentage<\/a> of people in the 13-60 age group testing positive had increased in the second wave after declining during the relatively lull period from November to February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
