, ||Cases likely to rises till September, October||
India crossed three million cases after adding nearly 69,239 cases on Saturday the fourth straight day that it had added over 69,000 cases. India continued to be placed behind Brazil and the United States in the overall case load and, at 56,706 deaths, had only half as many as Brazil and less than a third as that of the U.S.
India on Saturday reported having tested a million samples the first time it surpassed this milestone. India has been conducting an average 8,89,935 testings in the last five days and had tested 34.4 million samples till August 21. Only about 23% of the confirmed cases, or about 7,00,000, are active cases requiring treatment and the case fatality ratio or the confirmed deaths per ratified cases has dipped to less than 2%.
Experts say the relentless spread of the virus and infectiousness was inevitable and evident from several epidemiological projections from March. India is politically and culturally one country but epidemiologically its many countries rolled into one, said Dr. Jacob John, retired professor of virology at the Christian Medical College, Vellore. This is a respiratory virus and it was always a mistake to think that a single strategy a national lockdown for instance would be effective for the whole country, he said in a phone conversation.
