    According to the researchers at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune, Delhi tops the hazard index of spreading an infection.

    The researchers have created a ‘hazard map’ of 446 cities and towns, with populations of over 1 lakh, to identify areas from where pandemic outbreaks can spread rapidly, The Times of India has reported.

    Delhi is followed Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai. Pune is at number 10.

    IISER’s physics department used transportation networks and mobility patterns to create the map — the lower the rank, the higher is the hazard level. Researchers said infections can travel out from these cities because of the large, well-connected transport hubs, the TOI report added.
