After a temporary respite, the

Indian metropolis of Mumbai is

currently facing a massive increase in corona cases.

The authorities announced on Friday that a new record number of new infections had been registered.

This applies to both Mumbai and the entire state of Maharashtra, whose capital is Mumbai.

India, with its 1.3 billion inhabitants, had seen a significant decrease in new infections in December and January.

Since then, the number of cases has continued to rise, especially in the richest state of Maharashtra.

The authorities announced that the record number of almost

26,000 new infections was

registered

there on Friday

.

In Mumbai alone, more than 2,800 new cases had occurred, which was also the highest value since the beginning of the pandemic.

In total, almost 40,000 new cases have been registered across India - almost twice as many as a week ago.

However, this number is still well below the previous national high of almost 100,000 new infections in September last year.
