Even single digit Covid death toll is worrying

Yesterday Goa reported 5 Covid deaths. On Sept 24, there were 4. The positivity is just 1.75% with 866 active cases. Who is concerned? Not the BJP headed Task force for sure. Not the people clamouring for inviting irresponsible tourists and gamblers for sure. Irresponsible yes: they wear no masks even at the petrol station. More than 30 Bullet riders riding in tandem had no permission for their rally from North to South Goa. Yes, irresponsible. 

Not the Church who congratulated the Governor for giving some money for the dialysis patients but neither of whom care to ensure '0" covid deaths when the positivity is less than 2% Did the Church send at least one ‘warrior’ priest to administer the last sacraments?  Isn’t it their duty to help the sick and needy: now that they know the dialysis patients are indeed needy?

The Task Force members need to identify the contacts, analyse the full system today, when there are low cases and reduce the deaths. '0" deaths seem beyond them. Something is not right. There must be no deaths with such low cases and the claimed 102% vaxed population? Why is it not so?
