India has reported 2,380 new Covid-19 cases, according to the latest figures from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. This marks a slight decrease from the previous day’s figures, when the country recorded over 2,500 new cases.
The number of active Covid-19 cases in the country has also dropped to 27,212, down from over 28,000 the previous day. The total number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in India now stands at over 34 million, with over 450,000 deaths.
The drop in active cases is a positive sign for India, which has been battling a severe second wave of the pandemic in recent months. The country has seen a surge in cases and deaths since March, with hospitals overwhelmed and oxygen supplies running low in many areas.
The situation in India prompted a global response, with many countries and international organizations providing assistance to help the country cope with the crisis. The Indian government also took steps to address the crisis, including imposing lockdowns and increasing vaccine production.
The drop in active cases suggests that these measures may be having an effect, although experts caution that the situation remains fragile. The government has urged people to continue following Covid-19 protocols, such as wearing masks and social distancing, to prevent a resurgence in cases.
India’s vaccination drive has also been ramped up in recent months, with over 200 million doses administered so far. The government has set a target of vaccinating the entire adult population by the end of the year, although this goal remains ambitious given the challenges of scaling up vaccine production and distribution.
The situation in India serves as a reminder of the ongoing threat posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, and the need for continued vigilance and cooperation to overcome the crisis. While the drop in active cases is a positive sign, the country and the world must remain focused on defeating the virus once and for all.
