Abstract

The WHO tentatively called the new virus 2019 novel corona virus (COVID-19), which is become a effectively contagious disease in global health concern. India is the world's seventh-largest country, with twenty-eight (28) states and eight (8) union territories. In India, the highest COVID-19 case was recorded on 6th may 2021 which is 4,14,433 cases in the single day. On September 2020th, Maharashtra (11,45,840), Tamil Nadu (5,25,420) and Delhi (2,34,701) have the foremost COVID-19, and on May 2021st, Maharashtra (51,01,737), Tamil Nadu (13,80,259) and Delhi (13,23,567) have the foremost COVID-19 in India. Also, these states show the high death rate than other states. The positive COVID-19 cases are very drastically increased and death cases in these states due to the high population density. Hand hygiene, social distancing, and quarantine are some of the precautions that must be taken to prevent the virus from spreading in society. By increasing the detecting and testing capacity of the COVID-19 positive patients are also the way to enable the reduction of secondary cases with stricter quarantine rules.

2019冠状病毒病对印度的流行病学影响:世界上阳性病例第二多的国家

世界卫生组织暂时将这种新病毒命名为2019年新型冠状病毒(COVID-19)，它已成为全球卫生关注的有效传染病。印度是世界第七大国家，有28个邦和8个联邦属地。在印度，最高的新冠肺炎病例记录是在2021年5月6日，一天就有44433例病例。2020年9月，马哈拉施特拉邦(11,45840)、泰米尔纳德邦(5,25,420)和德里(2,34,701)的新冠肺炎病例最多，2021年5月，马哈拉施特拉邦(51,01,737)、泰米尔纳德邦(13,80,259)和德里(13,23,567)的新冠肺炎病例在印度最多。此外，这些州的死亡率比其他州高。由于人口密度高，这些州的COVID-19阳性病例和死亡病例急剧增加。手部卫生、保持社交距离和隔离是防止病毒在社会上传播必须采取的一些预防措施。通过提高对新冠病毒阳性患者的发现和检测能力，也可以通过更严格的隔离规定来减少继发性病例。
