India crosses one crore-recovery mark

India crossed the one-crore mark in Covid-19 recoveries on Wednesday — becoming the first country in the world to report more than 10 million cured patients — even as daily fresh cases were more than 20,000 for the first time in the last seven days. With 19,694 discharges from hospitals on Wednesday, the number of patients cured reached 1,00,15,925, which translates to a recovery rate of 96.3%. But, with the pandemic slowing down with daily cases declining in the last three months, the pace of recoveries, too, has slowed down as discharges from hospitals appear to have reached a saturation point.
