India
has leaped across another significant milestone in its fight against
COVID.With recovery of more than 85 lakh people so far, the national
recovery rate has improved to 93.68 per cent. With overall recovery of
nearly 85.62 lakh patients, the recovered cases in the country stand at
nearly 20 times the number of active cases.
Over 41 thousand patients
recovered and were discharged in the last 24 hours whereas the new
confirmed cases reported in the same time span stood at nearly 44
thousand.The active caseload of the country has also fallen below 5 per
cent. The total active cases in the country today stand at 4,43,486
which comprise merely 4.85 per cent of the total reported cases.
The
Health Ministry has informed that 26 States and Union Territory in the
country have reported less than even 20 thousand active cases.
It
said that enhanced countrywide medical infrastructure, implementation of
the Centre’s Standard Treatment Protocol by the States and Union
Territories and total dedication and commitment of doctors, paramedics
and frontline workers have led to a persistent increase in the number of
total recoveries in the country.
The Health Ministry has said that
this has also led to a commensurate dip in the fatality rate which
stands at 1.46 per cent. It informed that 511 case fatalities were
reported in the past 24 hours.
