CORONAVIRUS HAS INFECTED 2.8 CRORE PEOPLE SO FAR & LED MORE THAN 9,22,000 DEATHS WORLDWIDE



           The novel coronavirus has infected 2.8 crore people so far and led to more than 9,22,000 deaths worldwide since surfacing in China late last year, The United States has the most deaths with 193,705, followed by Brazil with 131,210, India with 78,586 and Mexico with 70,604. Israel said yesterday it will reimpose a national lockdown after coronavirus cases soared, while European nations grappled with mounting infections against a backdrop of protests against restrictions aimed at reining in the pandemic, as per a media report. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the three-week lockdown, which will hold people to within 500 metres (yards) of their homes, will start on Friday and could be extended. The plan prompted the resignation of ultra-Orthodox Housing Minister Yaakov Litzman, who said the measures would prevent Jews from attending synagogue over the upcoming Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur holidays. 

United States President Donald Trump recently claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had lauded him for being able to do a large number of coronavirus tests. While addressing an election rally in Nevada, Trump claimed that the US has done far more COVID-19 tests than many other countries including India. Trump is currently campaigning for the upcoming Presidential elections in the US and he continues to slam his Democratic opponent Joe Biden for being a complete disaster in handling the swine flu during the previous administration, as per a media report. The president claimed that PM Modi’s comment on the COVID-19 tests needs to be explained to the media as he has been largely criticized over his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in the US. Biden’s record demonstrates that if he had been in charge when the China virus arrived, hundreds of thousands of more Americans would have died. As vice president, he presided over the worst and the weakest and the slowest economic recovery, since the great depression, Trump added.
