Dharwad, Nov.26: The number of Covid-19 cases at SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital in Dharwad, Karnataka, increased to 178 on Friday after 112 more samples were found to be positive.

District Health Officer Dr Yashwanth A Madinkar told The Indian Express the results of 939 samples have been obtained since Wednesday. “Nearly 3,000 samples will be sent for testing in total from the campus. We have also suggested random testing of patients admitted to the hospital within the campus,” he said.

Dr. Madinkar further stated that some samples would be sent for genetic sequencing in order to determine which Covid-19 variation was responsible for the infections.

Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner Nitesh Patil stated that all of the cases were “breakthrough infections,” indicating that those who tested positive had received both vaccine doses. He explained that the majority of the patients were asymptomatic, while others had only minor symptoms.

“Those who have tested positive will be held in two-week quarantine.” “Most people’s health is stable,” he told reporters after touring the college on Thursday. He wants to know more about the preventive procedures that were put in place at the institute.

According to preliminary findings, all of those infected attended a students’ activity on November 17 at D Veerendra Heggade Kalakshetra, which is located on the college campus. The majority of the patients, according to Patil, were first-year students.

In the last few days, Dharwad had recorded no positive cases. But according to a health bulletin released on Thursday, it accounted for nearly 14% of all new cases diagnosed in the state.
