Chandigarh, February 4

The city reported three fatalities and 183 new cases of Covid-19 on Friday.

A 53-year-old woman from Sector 40, a case of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, kidney disease and acute decompensated heart failure, died at the PGI. She was fully vaccinated against Covid. A 76-year-old man from Sector 40, a case of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, kidney disease and coronary artery disease, breathed his last at Max Hospital, Mohali. He was fully vaccinated too. An 80-year-old man from Raipur Khurd was brought dead at the GMCH-32. He was fully vaccinated and tested positive for the virus posthumously.

The UT’s daily positivity rate stood at 3.82 per cent. As many as 396 new recoveries were also recorded on Friday. The overall fatality count of the city stands at 1,135. It has currently 2,099 active cases.

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).
