Corona peaks in India, 1.83 lakh cases a day

The country with the highest number of cases for the fourth day in a row in the world

Active cases in the country crossed 11.08 lakh for the first time, total cases 1.33 crore, death toll 1.69 lakh, record breaking 10 thousand daily cases in Delhi

New Delhi: The Corona epidemic in India is currently at its peak. Every day recordbreaking new cases are coming up. While the daily cases of the last 24 hours also broke the record globally. In 24 hours, 1.83 lakh cases of Corona were registered, making India the second largest country in the world after the United States in terms of daily cases. Corona cases are rife, especially in Hindi-speaking states.

Just six days ago, the daily cases of Corona had crossed one lakh and now it has crossed one and a half lakh. That means a direct 50 per cent jump in daily cases in just one week.

At the same time, 839 people were killed in a single day, the highest since October 16 last year. However, the death toll in the first wave of the Corona epidemic is lower than in the second wave.

For the first time in the country, the number of active cases has crossed 11 lakh, which is 8.29 per cent of the total cases. In just 24 hours, 61,456 active cases were added. This brings the total number of cases to 1,35,09,746. The death toll, on the other hand, has crossed 1,67,275.

Five states alone accounted for 70 per cent of the country's total cases. These states include Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh and Kerala. Maharashtra's cases alone accounted for 48.57 per cent of the country's total cases. Cases are growing very fast in Gujarat, Maharashtra and Rajasthan and now even in Delhi.

In the last 24 hours, 10,000 new cases of corona have been reported in Delhi. As a result, the situation in the capital is similar to last year, with 10,732 new cases reported, the first time since the outbreak in Corona.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said that the fourth wave of corona is going on in Delhi which is more dangerous and very serious. Kejriwal has warned of tougher sanctions and yet more deadly spread of Koro. Corona is now spreading in Tamil Nadu as well, with Congress candidate Madhav Rao suffering from corona in the recent assembly elections, which led to his death.

It is possible to make a more effective vaccine against corona

As the virus changes, so does the vaccine: AIMS Director

The country does not need a complete lockdown at present, red-yellow-green zone solution: Guleria

New Delhi: Randeep Guleria, director of the Delhi-based AIIMS, said the corona epidemic would last for a long time, adding that he hoped the virus could weaken in the coming days if people's immunity increased.

Talking about the corona vaccine, he said that the vaccine will also become a regular thing, every year the high risk group will have to be given the corona vaccine. In the days to come, people will be talking about corona just like we are talking about influenza and flu. The corona vaccine is not a compromise but a weapon, although a bigger weapon than the vaccine is social distance and adherence to protocol.

He said that as the virus changes, so should the vaccine, and if any variant occurs, a mask must be worn to prevent it. At present the country does not need a national level lockdown, we must stop the transmission. A mini lockdown will have to be carried out by creating a micro containment zone where the cluster is forming.
