2nd wave numbers rising much faster, daily cases close to 90k Such has been the surge in infections during the pandemic’s second wave that daily cases crossed 80,000 just 20 days after going past the 20,000 mark. The daily tally had crossed 20,000 on March 12 and hit 80,000 on April 1. The rise was three times faster than the corresponding increase during the first wave, when it took 64 days for cases to rise from the day the tally first crossed 20,000 (June 27, 2020) till the day 80,000 cases were recorded (August 30). https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
