After three new cases were detected on Wednesday (13 May), the Covid-19 tally in Uttarakhand has increased to 72, reports Hindustan Times.

The three new Covid-19 positive persons included a 30-year-old Jamaati from Nainital district who was part of a group of 14 Jamaatis who recently returned to the state from Maharashtra’s Amaravati.

A 27-year-old man with travel history from Gurugram tested positive in the hilly district of Almora while a 52-year-old woman from Dehradun was also found Covid-19 positive.

Meanwhile, in the neighbouring Himachal, two new Covid-19 cases were detected, taking the tally of positive cases in the state to 69.
