India is witnessing a modest increase in Covid-19 cases, prompting health authorities to remain vigilant.

In May, Mumbai reported 95 new cases with 16 hospitalisations. Ahmedabad recorded 7 new cases in a single day, Puducherry reported 12, and Karnataka has 16 active cases. Chennai has seen a shift in viral infections, with more cases now attributed to Covid-19 than influenza. Pune, despite no current hospitalised cases, has reserved hospital beds as a precaution, according to the Times of India.

Most infections remain mild, with no ICU admissions or fatalities reported. Health experts advise at-risk groups to resume preventive measures such as mask usage and hand hygiene. Influenza vaccination is also recommended to reduce the impact of potential co-infections.
