India is surrounded by pandemic, record of dead for 24 hours

During the last 24 hours, 4,205 people were registered in India, dead from Covid-19, Reuters writes.

In addition to the victims, during this period there was also the disturbing figure of 348 thousand and 421 new cases of infected people, bringing the total number of affected to over 23 million.

However, medical experts believe the situation is far more serious than official figures represent and that the actual number of victims and cases could be up to ten times higher.

Because of the large number of cases, India's health system is on the brink of collapse. Hospitals are facing lack of beds and medical oxygen.

Some countries around the world have vowed to offer aid to India, and some have already sent medical supplies and supplies.
