Daily Covid cases at 2.16 lakh, deaths at 1,184; active cases top 1.5 million

印度单日新增21.6万例，死亡1184例，现存确诊150万例

NEW DELHI: The Covid-19 second wave in India turned grimmer as daily infections crossed the 2-lakh mark, surging by nearly 9% over the previous day’s number to over 2.16 lakh on Thursday. Deaths from the virus in the last 24 hours rose to 1,184, the highest since September 18.

新德里：周四，印度单日感染人数突破20万大关，达到21.6万例，较前一天激增近9%，第二波新冠肺炎疫情变得更加严峻。在过去24小时内，新增死亡人数上升到1184人，是9月18日以来的单日最高。

Meanwhile, active cases in the country crossed 1.5 million (15 lakh) on Thursday. The unprecedented flood of infections this month has led to an over 2.5-fold increase in active cases, which numbered less than 6 lakh on March 31. A higher active case count means an increased risk of the virus spreading faster as well as a higher probability of deaths.

与此同时，印度的活跃病例在周四超过150万例。本月前所未有的感染浪潮导致活跃病例增加了2.5倍以上，3月31日的活跃病例不到60万例。活跃病例数越高，病毒传播的速度就越快，风险就越大，死亡人数增加的可能性也就越大。

On Thursday, a record 14 states and UTs posted their highest-ever spike in daily cases while Maharashtra logged its second-biggest surge of 61,695 cases. In all, 2,16,902 fresh cases were reported on Thursday, as per TOI’s database.

周四，14个邦和联邦属地的新增病例数量创下新高，马哈拉施特拉邦的新增61695例，为该邦迄今单日第二高。根据《印度时报》的数据库，周四总共新增216902例。

As deaths keep increasing — although still slightly lower than the tolls seen at the peak of the first wave — four states reported more than 100 fatalities each in the last 24 hours. Maharashtra continued to record the highest deaths at 349, followed by Chhattisgarh (135), Delhi (112) and Uttar Pradesh (104). Fatalities were also rising in Gujarat, which recorded 81 deaths, Karnataka (66) and Madhya Pradesh (53).

随着死亡人数不断增加——尽管仍略低于第一波高峰时的死亡人数——在过去24小时内，四个邦报告的死亡人数均超过100人。马哈拉施特拉邦仍是死亡人数最多的邦，为349人，其次是恰蒂斯加尔邦(135人)、德里(112人)和北方邦(104人)。古吉拉特邦、卡纳塔克邦和中央邦的死亡人数也在上升，分别为81人，66人和53人。

The death rate in Punjab, which recorded 51 fatalities on Thursday, continued to be the highest in the country at 2.7 per 100 cases. The national death rate (or case fatality rate) stood at 1.22% and has been drop marginally through the second wave as cases spiral sharply.

周四，旁遮普省新增死亡51人，死亡率仍然是全国最高的，每100例死亡2.7人。全国死亡率(或病死率)为1.22%，随着病例急剧上升，死亡率在第二波疫情中略有下降。

The government is responding but it is so late . They were foolish and arrogant and they were so confident in their response that they started doing vaccine diplomacy. Who does that? India is a poor country with a lot of population .

印度政府正在应对，但是太晚了。他们既愚蠢又自大，他们如此自信，居然把疫苗送给其他国家，开始了疫苗外交。这是谁做的?

印度是一个人口众多的贫穷国家。
