The spread of the Omicron variant is driving Covid to an endemic disease that humanity can live with, although it remains a pandemic for the time being, the EU drug watchdog said on Tuesday.
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) also expressed doubts about a fourth vaccination of the general population, saying repeated booster packs were not a “sustainable” strategy.
The agency’s statement comes as India continues to report over 1 lakh of Covid-19 cases as of last week. on As of Tuesday, 1,68,063 cases were reported nationwide, bringing the total number of cases to 3,58,75,790. The Union Ministry of Health announced on Tuesday.
The five largest states that recorded maximum cases are Maharashtra with 33,470 cases, followed by West Bengal with 19,286 cases, Delhi with 19,166 cases, Tamil Nadu with 13,990 cases and Karnataka with 11,698 cases. 58.08 percent of new cases are reported from these five states, with Maharashtra alone responsible for 19.92 percent of new cases.
