India Sets Another Grim Record

“India’s coronavirus catastrophe is worsening. The country on Friday reported another record number of new cases over the preceding 24 hours, as the army opened its hospitals and patients struggled to access beds, oxygen and lifesaving treatment,” the Washington Post reports.

“Crematoriums are overwhelmed, and the health system is crumbling. Anger toward Prime Minister Narendra Modi is growing, especially over his decision to hold huge election rallies as infections soared. India’s death toll has passed 208,000.”
