NEW DELHI - India's burgeoning coronavirus cases have overtaken China's tally, making it the latest nation with the dubious distinction of having more infections than the country where the virus was first detected.
The surge underscores the limited impact of the countrywide lockdown imposed on March 25 to curb the highly infectious pathogen. Nearly two months into the world's most expansive stay-at-home orders, India has not seen its virus curve flattening like Italy or Spain where new cases had begun trending downwards sooner. China too managed to contain its outbreak by locking down Hubei, the province where the pathogen first emerged.
Even among India's middle-class families, four or more often share a one-bedroom apartment in cities. In Mumbai's slums, as many as seven people live in one room while the whole neighbourhood may be sharing a toilet complex.
This somehow breaks my belief that eating curry does not make your body immune to covid19. Damn this virus!
Wow!
Proves that India is transparent about its numbers unlike communist China. 👍
