While we only focus on daily new cases (through new media etc.), it is important to monitor daily recovered cases too & deaths - to get a better sense of what is the net burden on the healthcare infrastructure. That is why we put so much emphasis on active cases.
Another factor to scrutinise closely is the daily testing: which is rising sharply overall (7 day moving average)
But not everywhere in the country. Delhi is reporting consistent decline in daily testing. This is leading to long delays and general confusion in treatment/quarantine protocols.
