introduction
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has already affected over 6.9 million people, claiming more than 400 000 lives in over 200 nations all over the world. As on June 9, 2020, most of the cases were reported from the United States of America, Brazil, and Russia. While some nations (like China and South Korea) have successfully been able to flatten the pandemic curve, other nations are finding it difficult to achieve the same. In the absence of any definite therapy against COVID-19, the resilience of the health care infrastructure and health professionals is being put to test.
The novel coronavirus disease has also infiltrated into India; hitherto over 250 000 cases have been reported from the country. With a population of more than 1.3 billion people, India could become the new epicenter of COVID-19. Due to the remarkable population density, poor socioeconomic conditions and health care resources, the World Health Organization (WHO) recently stated that the “future of the pandemic will depend on how India handles it.”1 Here, we have presented a summary of the present scenario of COVID-19 in India, the country’s response and major challenges that lie in the road ahead.
Present Scenario of COVID-19 in India
The first case of COVID-19 in India was reported on January 30, 2020; the index patient was a student who had returned from Wuhan. Thereafter, only 2 more cases were reported in February. Subsequently, more cases came to the forefront in the month of March and there has been a surge in the number of cases since the latter half of April 2020 (Figure 1). As of June 9, 2020, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), a total of 266 598 confirmed COVID-19 cases have been reported from 32 states/union territories.2 Most of the cases have been reported from the states of Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, and Gujarat. Hitherto, the MoHFW have reported 7471 deaths due to COVID-19, translating into a case-fatality rate of 2.8%.2
