Health Ministry has said that India has progressively maintained a low Case Fatality Rate -CFR which is at 1.7 per cent today as compared to global average of 3.28 per cent due to COVID- 19 infection. The Ministry in a tweet said, the aim is to achieve a national CFR of less than one per cent.
It said, there are 17 States and Union Territories that are even today reporting mortality figures lower than one per cent. The Ministry said this has been made possible by the Standard Treatment Protocol which has enabled provision of standardised quality healthcare across States and resulted in low fatality and selfless service of the doctors, paramedics and support staff in hospitals.
