"Coronavirus cases have increased slightly in Delhi over the last few days. I’ve spoken to experts, some of whom say this is a second wave, some don’t think so. But let me assure you that there is no need to worry, things are under control," Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal said. He said Delhi has the lowest death rate not only in the country but the world. "From August 15 till now, we have registered a death rate of 1% which is lower than the national average of 1.7%." The recovery rate in Delhi is 87% compared to 77% in the country. Cases are rising because we have doubled testing. If we reduce the number of tests, the number of cases too will decrease, the CM said. "There is no paucity of hospital beds in Delhi. There are 14,000 beds of which around 33% are occupied by our brothers and sisters from other States undergoing treatment in Delhi", Mr. Kejriwal said. He flagged those not taking precautions while stepping outside and asked people to get tested
