Oxygen supply grows scarce in parts of India as coronavirus cases pile up

India Today  

Oxygen supply has grown scarce in some parts of India hard hit by coronavirus, hospital and local government officials said, as India reported a record daily jump in cases for a second consecutive day, logging 97,570 new infections on Saturday. With total cases of more than 4.65 million, India is the world's second worst affected country, trailing only the United States, which has more than 6.4 million cases. If the state, which is India's richest, were a country, it would rival Russia for the fourth highest number of coronavirus cases globally. "I am so disappointed with the pandemic situation in India," Bhramar Mukherjee, a professor of biostatistics and epidemiology at the University of Michigan, who has been tracking India's Covid situation closely, said on Twitter.
