AP recorded 758 new infections in the 24-hour period (ending Thursday 9 am). Official data says that Chittoor and Guntur each saw more than 100 cases each.

Meanwhile, despite the steady rise in cases, the government has decided not to close down schools and colleges. Education Minister A Suresh, earlier this week, spelled out the government's stance regarding the matter. This decision stands in contrast to that of Telangana.
