As the cases continue to rise in the state, there have been speculations if Maharashtra will go under lockdown. However, the state government has ruled out the possibility of lockdown but is ensuring strong curbs. Meanwhile, the health department stated, “There is no consideration of lockdown as of now. The Maharashtra government will consider a lockdown or lockdown-like restrictions after medical oxygen demand for the state goes beyond 800 metric tonnes per day or more than 40 per cent of Covid beds in hospitals are occupied”.
