The fight against the second wave of Corona in the country has intensified. Because of this, a record 19 lakh 83 thousand 804 tests of Corona were done in the country. This is the largest number of tests conducted in a day. Earlier, 19.45 lakh tests were done on 30 April.
The big thing is that despite the record test, there has not been a big increase in the new infected. Corona was confirmed by only 3.48 lakh people on Tuesday. That is, the positivity rate was 17.6%. This figure was 24.9% two days ago.
It was also a matter of relief that on the previous day, more patients were cured than newly infected for the second consecutive day. In the last 24 hours, 3 lakh 55 thousand 256 people got cured. Earlier on Monday, 3 lakh 29 thousand 491 cases were received and 3 lakh 55 thousand 930 patients were cured.
Death figures increased concern
The death toll is also a matter of concern. In the last 24 hours, 4,198 people have died. This figure has crossed 4 thousand for the third time. Earlier, 4,233 people lost their lives on May 7 and 4,092 on May 8. In the last two days, active cases have also decreased by about 42 thousand. On May 9, the maximum number of patients treated was 37.41 lakh. Now, this figure has come down to 36.99 lakhs.
