The number of new infections reported Sunday marked a sharp decline from the previous 18 days, when India had reported more than 60,000 cases daily.

Cases have leveled off in India’s two largest cities, with serological surveys showing widespread prevalence among the residents of the capital, New Delhi, and financial center Mumbai.New hot spots continue to feed surges in cases in rural areas of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar states in India’s north, and in the southern states of Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.

India has the third-highest caseload after the United States and Brazil, and its 56,706 fatalities are the fourth-highest in the world.

No surprise here

The virus isn't racist.

Whats the death count ass hats

😢😢😢😢😢😷😷😷😷

Joe Biden blames Trump, news at 11.

Sad 😥 hoping it gets eradicated there and everwhere

India has a population of 1.3 BILLION people. Just to keep it in perspective

FTFY: BREAKING: India coronavirus cases top 3 million, leading the world in new infections as testing spreads to rural areas.

That Trump’s fault... We need to vote for Biden, so he can use his dementia super powers to destroy Covid.

The Pelosi virus is bad news.

Earth 1 human 0

That son of a bitch Ron DeSantis strikes again

Without an effective vaccine the pandemic must be suppressed worldwide else it will continue to spread all over again and again.

This is because of Trump tho right?

winning!

😥

china&iran virus world to get out

Is this trumps fault too?

300 million in India practice public defecation.

Most Indians are deficient in Zinc as they don’t eat meat especially red meat 🥩 but India also dealt with virulent pathogens before with good public health infrastructure in place ✌🏼

Yes, we all know its not magically going away without immunity or a vaccine.

Bencjacobs I have confidence that Trump supporters will work diligently to put us back in the lead.

The problem with this disease is not leadership, it is the people. They don't listen and do not learn.

Sad

TWill876 This just shows me Jamiaca is still safe

__ice9 Trump: WE WERE FIRST!!!!!

YIKES!

People are not able to understand that if group work is not done, the infections go on and on,in Mexico it has not been understood how important the mask is and we are the 3rd place

And yet Democrats are going to say this is also Trumps fault.

If they tested like the US it would be 10 million

Out of 1 million tests conducted yesterday 70000 were positive, More than 2 million have been cured. Active cases are around 700000 & Death rate is the lowest in the world around 1.8%

Prayers for India. We need to send aid stat.

We’re seeing this virus get closer to home and it’s scary. Stay safe, maintain good hygiene habits and social distancing, even when you think you just can’t take anymore hand sanitizer, face masks and do goody good finger waglers.

This is the true fear.

0,22% of all India's population. 👋

Thanks China!

I'm not too familiar with what India did but..

That's not good.

FakeNews / FACT-CHECK! Deaths from COVID-19 worldwide are at record LOWS now. What we have is not a Pandemic, but a CASEdemic. The are counting *asymptomatic* (HEALTHY!) people who test positive as a 'case'. That's bullshit.

Whew realDonaldTrump is finally off the hook!

As foolish as the US.

Do they want their Hydroxychloroquine back?

Those dirty rivers

Damn, 3 million

Don't forget: This is all a Democratic Hoax to make trump look bad in an election year.

WOW The Indians must drink more COW URINE to protect themselves from the virus

If this means we get less telemarking / scam calls I’m all for it.

They need to stop testing! Get those cases down!

It’s Ron DeSantis’ and Gov Abbott’s fault. Certainly not Newsom’s fault though because he’s a Democrat.

Oh wait this has to be trumps fault right?

God Damn Trump can’t do anything right

No one believes you anymore
