Maximum new COVID-19 cases continue to come from buildings and while they were spread out earlier, the trend is changing with siblings and other building residents getting infected. Numbers indicate the trend as buildings with more than five COVID cases increased by almost 50 per cent in the past five days. Slums, too, are seeing increased cases after aggressive screening and testing.
