NEW DELHI - The number of coronavirus infections rose to 52,952 in India, up by 3,561 over the previous day, the health ministry said on Thursday, with no signs of abating despite a strict weeks-long lockdown in the world’s second most populous country. The death toll was up by 89 to 1783, still low compared with the United States, United Kingdom and Italy which officials said was because the government imposed the stay-at-home order on 1.3 billion people much earlier in the cycle.
The spurt in cases has come from the densely packed metropolises of Mumbai, Delhi and Ahmedabad which are also the growth engines of the economy.
India, Pak and BD are gating saved from China Virus Holocaust because of BCG. Europe and US did not undergo mass BCG immunisation at Childhood. WHO may not agree but, infection and death rate is clearly indicating.
Out of 1.3 billion people!? Negligible.
Very small if we think they are over 1 billion, right after China.
They are simply lying or they speak with respect to the number of Covid-19 tests applied in India.
That their populatn they need to be careful
