India on Friday registered 79,705 new Covid-19 cases, taking the tally to 6,471,734. With 1,069 fatalities in 24 hours, India has crossed yet another grim milestone of 100,000 Covid-related deaths, becoming the third country to do so. With a high level of recoveries, India was maintaining its global position as the country with the highest number of recovered Covid-19 patients, said the Ministry of Health on Friday.

An effective vaccine is not likely to be available for the general public before the fall of 2021, according to experts working in the field of vaccine development.

The global tally of coronavirus cases stands at 34,817,275. While 25,879,985 have recovered, 1,032,708 have died so far. The US, the worst-hit country, has 7,549,076 cases. It is followed by India, which has 6,471,734 cases, Brazil (4,882,231) and Russia (1,194,643).
