India breaks its own records again with 412,000 new cases and nearly 4,000 deaths in 24 hours

India’s devastating coronavirus crisis deepened on Thursday as the country reported 412,000 infections and nearly 4,000 deaths in the previous 24 hours.
Epidemiologists believe that India’s surge could hit 500,000 cases a day in the coming weeks before retreating. That would represent a ruinous burden for a health care system already reeling from too many patients and a shortage of crucial supplies like oxygen.
