| | West Bengal reported 94 new Covid-19 positive patients and six deaths even as efforts to bring the pandemic under control was foiled by cyclone Amphan.
The number of active cases in the state was at 1,745, while the death toll projected by the state government was 187, without counting the 72 deaths that the government said was because of morbidities.
Social distancing norms and the focus on the pandemic took a back seat as the West Bengal government turned its attention towards relief efforts as Amphan left a trail of devastation that could add up to hundreds of crores.
The districts of East Midnapore, Howrah, North and South 24 Parganas, along with Kolkata, are the worst hit by the cyclone. |
