Experts say that if there is stability in the average cases for 7 consecutive days or there is a trend of decreasing cases, then it can be considered as a sign of relief. Here, in Jharkhand, patients have decreased by 30% in four days. On January 13, 4000 new cases were found, whereas on January 16, 2776 new patients were found. Meanwhile, the country's R factor has also declined after two weeks.
