India: last million Covid-19 cases in just 11 days

India set a grim record of reporting the last million of the total 5 million cases in just 11 days. India has recorded 4 million cases on September 4 and 3 million cases on August 22. The gap with the United States, which has the highest coronavirus caseload in the world, is reducing steadily. As on Tuesday night, there were more than 6.8 million people in the United States who have so far been infected with the virus. At the rate at which India is adding numbers, it looks poised to overtake the United States in about a month’s time, a data analysis by The Indian Express showed on Wednesday.
