The thresholds, the Centre said, are test positivity of 10 per cent or more in the last one week or 40 per cent occupancy on oxygen supported or ICU beds. States must take "containment measures, curbs even before thresholds are reached".

New Delhi: Omicron is three times as infectious as Delta and "war rooms" are needed to contain it, the Centre has told states. It listed a series of prevention and containment measures that included extensive testing, night curfew and regulation of gatherings.

Here are the Top 10 points in this big story:

* The letter from the health ministry said the measures taken should be based on local conditions, laying down the guidelines for what it called "threshold limits".

* The thresholds, the Centre said, are test positivity of 10 per cent or more in the last one week or 40 per cent occupancy on oxygen supported or ICU beds.

* The states and Union Territories can take "containment measures, curbs even before thresholds are reached" the Centre said.
