    India's recovery rate is progressively increasing and has reached 48.19% amongst Covid-19 patients, said Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on Monday. The recovery rate on 18 May was 38.29%, on 3 May it was 26.59% and on 15 April it was 11.42%.

    During the last 24 hours, 4,835 Covid-19 patients have been cured. Thus so far, a total of 91,818 patients have been cured of Covid-19.

    "A steady decline can be seen in the case fatality rate in the country. The relatively low death rate is attributed to the continued focus on surveillance, timely case identification and clinical management of the cases," the ministry said.
