Over 3 million people have now died of COVID-19 worldwide

COVID-19 topped a staggering 3 million people Saturday amid repeated setbacks in the worldwide vaccination campaign and a deepening crisis in places such as Brazil, India and France.The number of lives lost, as compiled by Johns Hopkins University, is about equal to the population of Kyiv, Ukraine; Caracas, Venezuela; or metropolitan Lisbon, Portugal. It is bigger than Chicago (2.7 million) and equivalent to Philadelphia and Dallas combined.And the true number is believed to be significantly higher because of possible government concealment and the many cases overlooked in the early stages of the outbreak that began in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019.

Will normal monsoon boost the economy amid surge in covid cases in India?

Monsoon rainfall, crucial for India's agriculture, is expected to be normal this year, with experts believing that good rains will lead to higher sowing of crops, boost farm income, and in turn, the rural economy, and also help rein in food inflation. A rise in global food prices and government spending though are critical factors to watch out for, they said.According to Aditi Nayar, chief economist, Icra Ltd, the forecast of a normal monsoon comes as a relief, given the early rise in temperatures and reservoir storage that is trailing year-ago levels by a margin of 8 percentage points.
