India recorded more than 320,000 new cases of coronavirus infection on Tuesday as the country's sinking health system started receiving much-needed support from foreign nations.
Tuesday's 323,144 new infections raised India's total past 17.6 million, behind only the United States.
It ended a five-day streak of recording the largest single-day increases in any country throughout the pandemic, but the decline likely reflects lower weekend testing rather than reduced spread of the virus.
