India just moved up a step on a list no country wants to be on.
According to Business Insider, India on Sunday surpassed Russia in its number of new novel coronavirus COVID-19 cases.
India’s total number of cases is now 697,836, compared to Russia’s 681,251.
India is now behind the United States, in the top spot, and Brazil.
The hotspot is India’s capital, Delhi, which leads the country in new COVID-19 cases.
Though the subcontinent only just recorded more cases than Russia, it has counted almost twice as many deaths.
