Worrying / Worrying news for Ahmedabadis, Corona found in Sabarmati river water.
The Sabarmati river, which is considered as the lifeline of Ahmedabad, has also become coronal. This is not what we are saying but a report.
Corona virus found in Sabarmati river!
Survey of 8 institutes including IIT Gandhinagar
Water samples were also found in Kankaria, Chandola lake.
Samples taken from water treatment plants were examined by 8 institutes of the country including IIT Gandhinagar last year. Corona virus has been found in this sample. Apart from Sabarmati river, corona has also been found in samples taken from Kankaria and Chandola water.
The virus was found in water
Following this study, the study has also been resumed by investigating the natural water resources. Ahmedabad has the largest number of waste water treatment plants. Finding corona from water makes it clear that the virus can also survive in natural water. Therefore all the natural water resources of the country should be examined.
Were investigating in Guwahati till March
Work began in Guwahati after an infected sample was found from Sabarmati, the researcher said. Samples were being investigated here till March, meanwhile river samples taken from Bharu were found infected. However, there was little doubt about the Brahmaputra river.
Investigate all natural water sources
According to Manish, samples were taken every week from September to December 29, 2020 and the infection was detected. 694 samples were taken from Sabarmati, 549 from Kankaria and 402 from Chandola lake which were found to be infected.
What did the experts say?
Manish Kumar, of the Department of Earth Sciences, Gandhinagar-based Indian Institute of Technology, said Corona's survival was discovered during an investigation last year that took samples from sewage.
Corona status in Gujarat
According to figures released by the state government, 283 new cases of corona have been reported in the state in the last 24 hours, while 6 people have died due to the infection. Today, once again in Gujarat, the number of people recovering from the second wave of corona is even higher than the case of corona.
Relieving death and recovery rate of 6 patients in last 24 hours
So far, 10,018 people have died in Gujarat due to corona. Corona's case is lower today than it was yesterday. However, 770 patients have recovered in Gujarat today against the new case. So far, 8,03,122 patients have been released from the corona. Thus, even today the number of cases has come down and the number of those who have recovered is a relief. There are currently 203 people on ventilators in the state. The number of active cases has reached 7749. Thus, the number of active cases is also declining day by day.
