India has reported 386,452 new infections in the past 24 hours, marking yet another global record for the highest single-day case count. More than 3,600 people died.
The country recorded one million COVID-19 cases over the last three days, pushing the total number of cases in the country to more than 18 million since the pandemic began, according to figures released today by the country s Health Ministry.
Delhi s facilities have been cremating more than 600 bodies daily for the past week, according to the mayor of the North Delhi Municipal Corporation.
This is double the official daily death toll for the city, and an indicator there may be a major underreporting problem.
