India reports little over 38,000 Covid-19 cases in 24 hours, tally touches 85.91 lakh
New Delhi/IBNS: India, which was reporting the massive spike in daily Covid-19 cases just a few weeks ago, on Tuesday reported little over 38,000 new infections.
With 38,073 new cases in the last 24 hours, the Covid-19 tally has touched 85,91,730.
The Coronavirus toll has now increased to 1,27,059 with 448 fatalities reported in the last 24 hours.
Meanwhile, the active cases remained below six lakh for the 12th consecutive days.
A Covid-19 vaccine, which is jointly developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, has shown 90 percent effectiveness in preventing Covid-19 infections during the ongoing phase 3 trials, the companies said on Monday.
After discussion with the FDA, the companies recently elected to drop the 32-case interim analysis and conduct the first interim analysis at a minimum of 62 cases.
Upon the conclusion of those discussions, the evaluable case count reached 94 and the DMC performed its first analysis on all cases.
