Delhi has gained control over the second wave of COVID-19, city Health Minister Satyendar Jain said on Wednesday adding that the government is ramping up its infrastructure to fight the future waves.

Claiming a large number of lives daily, the national capital faced a brutal second wave of the pandemic earlier this year. On April 20, the city had reported a record 28,395 cases.

On April 22, the case positivity rate was 36.2 per cent, the highest so far. At 448, the highest number of deaths was reported on May 3.
