Coronavirus live updates: India's recovery rate now stands at 63.24%, govt says

Countless hours of treatment and research, trial and error now make it possible to take much closer measure of the new coronavirus and the lethal disease it has unleashed. But to take advantage of that intelligence, we must confront our persistent vulnerability: The virus leaves no choice.

Former Union Minister and Rajya Sabha MP from Bihar Akhilesh Prasad Singh on Wednesday alleged that COVID -19 cases were increasing in the country daily but the situation was the worst in Bihar. "I have been pointing out since long that the situation in India is very bad due to COVID -19. However, the pandemic situation is worse in Bihar as compared to other states. There is nothing in the name of health services in Bihar. The testing level there is also much lower than in other states. In Bihar, the infection is spreading slowly and I think there is also an infection increasing in the community there," he said.
