With the administration of 73,63,706 vaccine doses in the last 24 hours, India&rsquo;s COVID-19 vaccination coverage has crossed 126.53 crore, figures released by the health ministry on Saturday show.</p>
<p>
The number of fresh coronavirus cases in the country fell to 8,603 from 9,216 on Friday, and have remained below the 10,000 mark in recent days. India&rsquo;s active caseload presently stands at 99,974.</p>
<p>
Over 84% people in the country have now received at least one dose of the Covid vaccine, with more than 125 million people due for a second by the end of November. The government has accelerated the pace of vaccination as the Omicron variant of Covid-19 has emerged as the new danger worldwide.</p>
<p>
&quot;Given the fast pace of vaccination in India and high exposure to Delta variant … the severity of the disease is anticipated to be low,&quot; the ministry said in a statement. &quot;However, scientific evidence is still evolving.&quot;</p>
<p>
The Health Ministry said that the testing capacity across the country continues to be expanded. The last 24 hours saw a total of 12,52,596 tests being conducted.</p>
<p>
While testing capacity has been enhanced across the country, the Weekly Positivity Rate at 0.81% remains less than 1% for the last 20 days now. The Daily Positivity rate reported to be 0.69%. The daily Positivity rate has remained below 2% for the last 61 days and below 3% for 96 consecutive days now.</p>
