There is way over 90% recovery rate and experts say probably higher than that due to the millions of undocumented recoveries.

@JohnRoberts So you advocate business as usual. Let people get infected. Those strong enough will survive let others die.

@JohnRoberts I agree with you fully. This can not go on like this for much longer. We have already started feeling the heat. The loan instalments are mounting. Savings are at their bottom can not last much longer. My point is it may be a better idea to bear for little longer.

@msdivkar The lockdown is causing people to die and creating devastating misery which is counter to what this lockdown is supposed to accomplish. You do realize the entire world is being crushed into the ground? There is no vaccine in sight. Will you have food and money after a few more months of this?

On the contrary to your numbers, our cases seemed to go down a bit. From the 200 plus, yesterday we had 140 and today we have 111 only.

I wish you all the best. You are a conglomerate of number of islands which made you easier to brake the chain and hence early success over the pandemic. But you should not take it easy.

@msdivkar all of us cannot be complacent if the numbers are getting better. Care should be taken all the time.

Things are not rosy and it only demands strict action on lockdown violators

that's too bad. I guess a lot of people have not taken this pandemic seriously.
