Prime Time With Ravish Kumar - June 1, 2021: India continues to battle a devastating second Covid wave. As of Tuesday morning, India reported 1.27 lakh new COVID-19 cases in the past 24 hours - the lowest daily increase since April 9. The second wave saw a peak of over four lakh new cases in a day. The government on Thursday trashed as "baseless" a New York Times report that said India's Covid deaths were severely undercounted and underreported. "The NYT report is not backed by any evidence and is based on distorted estimates," said VK Paul, NITI Aayog member and the head of India's Covid task force. The New York Times said in an article published on Tuesday that India's death count was more likely three times the official 3 lakh, basing it on data from three nationwide sero surveys or antibody tests.
