The last time the city reported more than 50 cases of Coronavirus was on September 14 with 57 new cases, the Indian Express reported.

The graph of Coronavirus infection steadily came down in Delhi after the end of the second wave and very few cases have been reported in the city for the past several months.

With the season of festivals over and complacency creeping in among the population, the tally of 54 new cases of Coronavirus reported on Wednesday is an important development that might signal the trajectory of the spread of the virus in the next few weeks. While the city reported 54 new cases of Coronavirus on Wednesday, no COvid-19 related casualty came to light on Wednesday. The positivity rate which is derived from the ratio of the total new cases and the total number of Covid-19 tests conducted during a period also remained negligible. On Wednesday, the positivity rate of Coronavirus infection in the city remained at 0.09 percent.

Another 164 patients of Coronavirus whose condition was not serious are recuperating from the deadly virus in home quarantine.
