While the number of active COVID-19 patients in the city hovers around 23,000, 52.3 lakh people in Mumbai are still living in Containment Zones (CZ). While the number of active patients in slums is lower than that in high-rises, the movement of 42.4 lakh people in slums is still restricted and 9.9 lakh people are living in sealed buildings.

While the municipal commissioner assured that the city will not have more lockdowns, those still living in CZs are only allowed to go out for essential needs. The number of high-rises in CZs is 6,173, much higher than 677 CZs in slums.
