For the second consecutive day, Kerala reported no fresh COVID-19 cases on Monday. Announcing the same, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan in his daily press briefing after a COVID evaluation meeting in Trivandrum added that 61 persons undergoing treatment had tested negative for coronavirus. This means that only 34 persons remain in various hospitals undergoing treatment.

As of Monday, a total of 499 persons had tested positive for the disease. With the latest recoveries, three districts- Thiruvananthapuram, Malappuram, and Kozhikode have become free of active COVID-19 patients.
