New case record in India, almost 36,000 in 24 hours

Almost 36,000 cases of the new coronavirus announced the Federal Ministry of Health of India. Specifically, 35,871 cases were recorded SARS-CoV-2, number that for the second consecutive day is the highest so far this year, with the total number of people infected with the new coronavirus in the country reaching 11,474,605.

At the same time, as AMPE broadcasts, the deaths of another 172 patients with COVID-19 increased the pandemic toll to 159,216 dead so far.

In India, which has the third highest number of viral infections in the world – after the US and Brazil – cases have been rising again for a few weeks, which has heightened concerns about a new wave.

Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated during the immunization campaign. The health authorities of India have vaccinated more than 37 million people for the new coronavirus from mid-January. New Delhi wants 300 million of the country’s 1.35 billion people to be immunized by August.
