Despite the high number of cases, the number of active cases in the country stands at 37,093, which is just 0.08% of the total cases reported. This can be attributed to the government's efforts to ramp up testing, tracing, and treatment, as well as to encourage people to follow COVID-19 protocols such as wearing masks, social distancing, and washing hands regularly. The government has also implemented vaccination drives across the country to immunize as many people as possible and reduce the risk of infection.

India has administered 220.66 crore doses of the COVID-19 vaccine as part of its nationwide vaccination drive, which has been a massive undertaking. The government has prioritized vulnerable groups such as healthcare workers, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions to receive the vaccine first. This has helped to reduce the number of severe cases and fatalities caused by the virus.

However, the country is not out of the woods yet, as new cases continue to be reported daily. States such as Delhi, Punjab, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Gujarat, Haryana, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu have reported fatalities, while Kerala has reported six reconciled deaths. The government and healthcare authorities continue to monitor the situation closely and implement measures to contain the spread of the virus.

The pandemic has also highlighted the need for better healthcare infrastructure in the country, especially in rural areas where access to medical facilities is limited. The government has announced several measures to address this issue, including increasing the number of medical colleges and hospitals, providing better medical facilities and equipment, and training more healthcare professionals. These measures will not only help in the fight against COVID-19 but also improve overall healthcare in the country.
