(Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) India has added nearly 25,000 confirmed cases to the highest record since the epidemic
China News Agency, Kathmandu, July 5 (New Delhi): According to data released by the Indian Ministry of Health on the morning of the 5th, in the past 24 hours, there have been 24,850 new cases of new coronavirus infections in the country, with a total of 673,165 cases.
On May 25, at the Shiraz International Airport in Mumbai, India, security personnel checked passenger identity information. The Indian government allows domestic routes to resume from May 25th.
This is the largest number of newly diagnosed cases in a single day since the emergence of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic in India, and the third consecutive day of more than 20,000 newly confirmed cases. At the same time, there were 613 new deaths in India in the past 24 hours, with a total of 19268 deaths.
It is very likely that India will surpass Russia on July 6th and become the third country with the largest number of newly diagnosed cases in the world.
From a regional perspective, there are already 14 states (or administrative districts at the same level) with a cumulative number of more than 10,000 cases. Among them, Maharashtra has the largest number of cases, with more than 200,000 cases. Followed by Tamil Nadu, Delhi, Gujarat and so on.
The Hindustan Times quoted Maharashtra’s medical education minister Amit Deshmoh as saying that the state’s medical infrastructure is ready to respond to the increasing number of cases. He also said that July and August are crucial. If properly controlled, the number of new crown cases will start to decline within the last month.
In order to control the spread of the new coronavirus, the Indian government has extended the ban on international flights to July 31. (Finish)
