COVID-19: India Becomes the First Country to Record Over 80,000 Infections in a Single Day
- 3 years ago
On September 3, India became the first country to record over 80,000 new cases within a single day. Which means no other country has recorded such a high jump in the number of cases in a single day.
It is also important to remember that experts, and many epidemiologists, some of which have been interviewed on The Wire have said that these are just official recorded numbers and the daily increase in total caseload could be much greater than this.
The states which are contributing the most to daily increase in the total caseload are Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh.
Over 17,000 new cases were recorded in Maharashtra on September 3, following around 10,000 new cases in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka and over 5,000 new cases in Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh.
In terms of daily deaths, India is recording over 1,000 deaths everyday now. According to an analysis in The Indian Express, over a 1,000 deaths could become the new normal.
