New Delhi Grapples With Covid-19 As India Approaches 10 Million Cases

NEW DELHI, INDIA - DECEMBER 09: Travelers receive nasal swabs to test for the Covid-19 coronavirus before boarding interstate buses at a bus station on December 09, 2020 in New Delhi, India. India is grappling with a staggering caseload of infections that is approaching 10 million rapidly. The country has been hard-hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, which has led to rolling lockdowns, devastated the underprivileged, and has sent the economy into a deep recession as activity ground to a halt. 10 million healthcare workers, and 20 million frontline workers including police, defence, and municipal staff will be among the first to receive a projected 600 million vaccinations across the country, India's government announced last week.
