Its federal Ministry of Health India announced today (15/05) that the previous 24 hours 3,890 coronavirus patients died, while 326,098 cases of SARS-CoV-2 were confirmed in the laboratory.
For the first time in 24 hours, the number of deaths reported fell below 4,000 a day. The official pandemic of the new coronavirus in the giant Asian state has reached 266,207 dead out of a total of 24.37 million, however, many experts point out that these numbers are very underestimated in reality.
However, the lower number of cases may be due to the small number of diagnostic tests performed, less than 9 May.
Meanwhile, from Geneva, the Secretary-General of the World Health Organization, Tantros Antanom Gebregesous, warned that the second year of the coronavirus pandemic is expected to be more deadly than the first, with the situation in India causing great concern.
The statements of the Center were made during an internet meeting yesterday, Friday 14 May, after the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, sounded the alarm bell for the rapid spread of covid-19 in the countryside.
According to the APE-MPE, this week alone, the government announced more than 20,000 deaths and 1.7 million cases.
Infections are steadily declining in the states where the outbreak was first observed when the second wave of the epidemic began in India in mid-February – such as Maharashtra, the country’s richest state, and New Delhi – after imposing stricter restrictive measures halting the epidemic.
However, in the eastern state of West Bengal, where elections were recently held, the largest increase in the daily number of new cases was observed yesterday.
In the western state of Gujarat, Monti’s hometown, daily cases fell below 10,000 for the first time in four weeks, but officials warned of easing restrictions until the number of new covid-19 infections dropped to levels that were before mid-February.
