BENGALURU:

A mind-boggling 4,120 fresh Covid cases were reported in the state on Sunday – just a shade less than Saturday’s 4,537 cases — taking Karnataka’s tally past 60,000. Bengaluru alone accounted for 2,156 of Sunday’s reported infections and now has a caseload of 24,316.

So far, 63,772 positive cases have been detected in the state. Of these, 1,331 have died, giving a mortality rate of 2.8%. Currently, 23,065 people have been discharged from hospitals, giving a recovery rate of 36.1%. There are 39,370 active cases statewide. On Sunday, 1,290 patients were discharged statewide, but that is of little comfort in the context of the surging infections.
