India has reported a slight decline in active COVID-19 cases, with numbers dropping to around 5,976 as of June 20, 2025. This comes after a recent surge caused by four Omicron sub-variants—LF.7, XFG, JN.1.16, and NB.1.8.1—which are known for their high transmission rates and ability to evade immunity. Health experts have reassured that the severity of illness remains relatively low, and hospitalisations are mostly limited to elderly individuals or those with underlying health conditions.
Medical professionals say that most patients currently experience mild symptoms such as a persistent cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, and mild fever. However, they warn people to seek immediate care if symptoms include breathing difficulty, chest pain, or fatigue that lasts beyond the usual course of infection. Vulnerable groups, including children, seniors, and those with compromised immunity, are particularly advised to be cautious.
Experts are also keeping an eye on potential long-term effects, although early signs suggest that fewer people may experience lingering symptoms compared to previous waves. Issues like fatigue, joint pain, and sleep disturbances, often linked with long COVID, have been reported in some cases. Doctors continue to emphasize the importance of staying updated with COVID-19 booster shots and following basic preventive measures like mask-wearing and hygiene practices to stay safe.
