He said that the death rate of the coronavirus in the country is currently the lowest (1.64) percent compared to other countries of the world and the government aims to reduce this death rate to less than one percent. Responding to the discussion in the Rajya Sabha on the coronavirus epidemic, Health and Family Welfare Minister Harsh Vardhan said that the health rate of Covid patients in India is 78 to 79 percent. He said that India is among the few countries with a high rate of recovery from Covid-19.
