India has passed one crore coronavirus cases as it waits for a vaccine for the highly infectious virus, which has affected over 7.5 crore people worldwide. Last month, the United States became the first country to cross the grim mark. In India, over 1.45 lakh patients have died so far after contracting the virus while the death tally in the US is almost double at 3,13,588. India's recovery rate of 95 per cent is "one of the highest globally", the government said this morning.
