Coronavirus LIVE Updates: The active caseload has declined to 4,85,350 while recovery rate increased to 97.09%.

India reported 43,071 new coronavirus cases on Sunday, slightly lower than Saturday, and added 955 deaths. This increased the country's cumulative tally to 3,05,45,433 and 4,02,005 fatalities. The country crossed a grim milestone of 4 lakh Covid deaths on Friday - the third after US and Brazil. The active caseload has declined to 4,85,350 while recovery rate increased to 97.09%. Over 52,000 patients recovered during the last 24 hours as the daily recoveries continued to outnumber the daily new cases for the 52nd consecutive day, the ministry said. Meanwhile, the third wave of coronavirus could hit the peak between October-November if Covid appropriate behaviour is not followed, but may see half the daily cases recorded during the second surge, according to a scientist of a government panel tasked with modelling of COVID-19 cases.
