With over 28,498 cases registered yesterday, the climbing values are showing no sign of relief, and at this rate the situation of the country will be catastrophic by the end of this year.
India’s active cases have crossed the 3-lakh mark. The number of active cases is steadily increasing as the everyday a record surge is being witnessed in the country. Earlier there was a significant difference between the number of active cases, and the number of recovered cases, but ever since a spike in the number of cases has been witnessed, the number of active cases is steadily on the rise. If things do not settle down soon, India’s number of active cases might surpass the number of recovered patients. In case this were to happen, the healthcare and medical department will be heavily overburdened and the whole system will collapse.
People needs to understand the gravity of the situation and follow the government issued guidelines to protect themselves and others of the coronavirus.
