An alarming spurt in the number of COVID-19 positive cases occurred in J&K on Saturday as five more tested positive for the dreaded virus, taking the total to 33.

"Hardly do I finish my press briefing - about 28 cases - that I get more unpleasant news... 5 new positive cases - 2 in Srinagar, 3 in Jammu, and all contacts of previously positive ones. All Jammu cases asymptomatic. We are at 33 now," government spokesman Rohit Kansal said.



Seven had tested positive earlier on Saturday and with new cases, the total number of positive cases in J&K is now 33 out of whom 21 are in Kashmir and 12 in the Jammu division.

One of the Covid-19 patients died in Srinagar earlier this week while another was successfully treated.
