India has scaled another peak of success with conducting 11.7 lakh test in last 24 hours and registering 68,584 COVID-19 recoveries in a single day. Now a total of nearly 30 lakh (2,970,492) has been recovered.
With this, India’s Recovery Rate amongst the COVID-19 patients has crossed 77% (77.09%). The number of recovered patients has outpaced active cases (8,15,538) by more than 21.5 lakh.
The recovered patients have increased to more than 3.6 times the active cases, as on date. The record high recoveries have ensured that the actual caseload of the country, the active cases, has reduced and currently comprises only 21.16% of the total positive cases.
Focus on improved and effective clinical treatment in hospitals, supervised home isolation, use of non-invasive oxygen support, improved services of the ambulances for ferrying patients for prompt and timely treatment, up-gradation of clinical management skills of doctors treating COVID-19 patients by active technical guidance through teleconsultation sessions of AIIMS, New Delhi, use of steroids and anti-coagulants, etc., have together resulted in seamless, efficient patient management.
These measures have ensured that India’s Case Fatality Rate (CFR) is maintained below the global average (3.3%). Witnessing a decline every day, it stands at 1.75% today.
