The target implies a 50% jump from the maximum output of almost 10,000 tonnes reached earlier this year during the peak of the second COVID-19 wave, when hospitals ran short of the gas and relatives of patients had to search out oxygen cylinders. Linde India supplied nearly one-third of the total oxygen demand during the peak. Moloy Banerjee, head of Linde South Asia, said that while the government is targeting 15,000 tonnes of medical oxygen per day, Linde and other manufacturers were hoping to hit production of at least 13,500 tonnes per day ahead of the third wave.

Previously, only workers in higher-risk settings such as food and beverage outlets, personal care services, and gym and fitness studios needed to undergo such tests. The number of new infections last week doubled to more than 1,200, up from around 600 cases the week before. Moving forward, retail mall workers, supermarket staff, last-mile delivery personnel, including parcel and food delivery workers, as well as public and private transport workers such as taxi drivers, private-hire car drivers and all public transport front-line staff, will have to undergo tests as well.

The top court made this observation while refusing to entertain a petition seeking direction to Centre to set up an international task force, composed of national and international experts (including those from China) in consultation with this court, for finding scientific answers about the Delta variant's origin and the extent to which it was responsible for the second wave of COVID-19. A bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud, Vikram Nath and Hima Kohli said the petitioner NGO 'Abhinav Bharat Congress' and its president Pankaj K Phadnis should approach the government for the constitution of the international task force. "You should approach the government with your prayer and make a representation. We don't have jurisdiction over citizens of China or for that matter citizens of the USA. If they want to constitute a task force to find out the origin they can do so, we cannot do," the bench said.
