NEW DELHI: The number of new Coronavirus infections reported daily in India dropped below 60,000 for the second time this month, while the number of fresh fatalities registered across the country dipped below 600 almost after three months, the Health ministry data stated on Monday.
A day after a government-appointed panel said the COVID19 pandemic in India has peaked and may even be controlled by early next year, Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan on October 19 said that by February next year, India would have 40,000 active cases if Covid-appropriate behavior is followed.
“Science and Technology ministry got scientists from the world to make a prediction model of cases. Research-based on their techniques found that Covid appropriate behavior for 3-4 months will lead to a declining trend in India and by February we’ll have 40,000 active cases,” a national news agency quoted Vardhan as saying.
Currently, there are 7,72,055 active cases of Coronavirus in India and the number has maintained a “steady declining trend” for the past few days, according to officials.
The total cases mounted to 75,50,273 with 55,722 infections being reported in a day. On October 13, India had last registered daily cases below 60,000.
