rose to over 10.7 lakh. At least 543 deaths were reported, taking the

patients have already recovered.
Maharashtra,
the worst-affected state, crossed the three-lakh mark on Saturday with Mumbai
reporting over 1 lakh coronavirus cases so far. The national capital, on the
other hand is projecting an uplifting trend. For 17 of the last 20 days,
including 11 in a row now, the number of people recovering from Covid in Delhi
has remained higher than newly detected infections — no other state has come
close to such a trend. Meanwhile, the AIIMS Ethics Committee has given its nod
for a human clinical trial of the indigenously developed COVID-19 vaccine
candidate Covaxin following which the premier hospital is likely to begin the
exercise by enrolling healthy volunteers from Monday.
Globally,
over 14 million people have been infected with the virus and 602,656 have died.
It has taken just four days to climb to 14 million cases from 13 million
recorded on July 13.
The
number of cases in Mumbai, the capital state of Maharashtra, crossed 1 lakh on
Saturday. Maharashtra's tally breached 3 lakh-mark and reached 3,00,937 as the
state recorded 8,348 fresh cases, the health department said.
Ahead
of Bakri Eid and Ganesh festivals, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray reiterated
that religious, social and political gatherings will remain prohibited in the
state in view of the rising infections. Addressing collectors and municipal
commissioners via a virtual meeting, Thackeray called for replication of the
Dharavi model at other places in the state to control the coronavirus outbreak.
India
is the third country in the world, after the US and Brazil, to cross the 10
lakh mark in Covid-19 cases. The country reached this grim milestone merely
three days after it crossed the 9 lakh mark. Currently, India has 3,42,473
active cases. Over 6.35 lakh coronavirus patients have been
cured/discharged/migrated since Thursday.
Compared
to the world average, India’s mortality rate is much lower. While globally the
mortality rate of the disease is about 4.3 per cent, in India it has dropped to
2.55 per cent. Meanwhile, the US, which has seen the maximum number of deaths,
more than 1.35 lakh, has a mortality rate of about 3.98. With over 74,000
deaths, Brazil has a mortality rate of 3.84 per cent.

British scientists: No normality until vaccine
British scientists are dismissing Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s hope the country may emerge from coronavirus lockdown and return to normality by Christmas.Johnson has announced more easing of restrictions, with people urged to return to public transit and workplaces.
He says sports fans should return to stadiums by October and remaining restrictions could be lifted from November, possibly in time for Christmas.
“But epidemiologist John Edmunds, a member of the government’s Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies,” says a return to pre-pandemic normality wouldn’t be possible until there’s a vaccine for the virus.
He says a world where people can go to work normally, travel on the buses and trains, go on holiday without restrictions, meet friends, shake hands, hug each other and so on that’s a long way off, unfortunately.
