India on Sunday reported its highest single-day COVID-19 deaths since July after two states updated their death tolls.
Bihar reported 2,426 unrecorded deaths while Kerala reported 263 deaths, a federal health ministry spokesperson told Reuters.
The updated figures took single-day deaths to 2,796, the highest since July 21, according to a Reuters tally.
Indian states have continued to add unreported COVID-19 deaths in recent months, lending weight to some medical experts’ opinions that such deaths are much higher than the reported number of 473,326.
