Chandigarh reported 15 new Covid-19 cases and recorded one death over the last 24 hours, a health bulletin from the administration said on Tuesday.

A 77-year-old fully vaccinated man died at the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research.

The UT now has 100 active cases and an average positivity rate of 0.85 per cent over the last week.

The latest fatality takes cases to 1,079. The bulletin showed 1,374 samples were taken for testing.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
