Abstract:
Coronavirus (COVID-19) started its invasion as an epidemic from Wuhan, China and propagated to become the scary pandemic that reached more than 200 countries all over the world. High number of infected people and unfortunately high mortality are the result of this invasion. The Indian scenario is no exception to this deadly infection attack, though it started a bit late. The first case in India came into notice in January and the number of cases showed an enormous growth in mid March and still continue to grow. This timely report focuses on the current invasion scenario in India as of 11th May 2020; with total cases of 67,152, active cases of 44, 029, deaths totaling to 2206 and over-all recoveries of ∼20,917 patients.
