The death toll climbed to 5,28,754 with nine fatalities which includes three deaths reconciled by Kerala, the data updated at 8 am stated.

The active cases comprise 0.07 per cent of the total infections, while the national COVID-19 recovery rate increased to 98.75 per cent, the ministry said. A decline of 1,920 cases has been recorded in the active COVID-19 caseload in a span of 24 hours. -- PTI

PS. Doctors say that one of the reasons for the drop in cases is because people with symptoms do not undergo a Covid test and pass it off as flu.
