The number of recoveries in India today exceeds the active cases by 3.5 times.
The single-day recovery figure has been more than 60,000 for many days. Recovery of 63,173 COVID-19 patients in the last 24 hours has resulted in the cumulative recoveries of 24,67,758 people. This has contributed to the rapidly widening chasm between the number of percentages recovered and active percentage cases further.
17,60,489 people have recovered more than active cases (7,07,267). With this, India’s Recovery Rate amongst the COVID-19 patients has crossed 76% (76.30%) today.
The record high recoveries have ensured that the actual caseload of the country, the active cases, has further lowered. It currently comprises only 21.87%of the total positive cases.
The coordinated efforts of Centre and State/UT governments of early detection through aggressive testing and efficient clinical management of hospitalised cases have shown results with continuously regressing Case Fatality Rate. It is 1.84% as on the date and steadily declining.
