While India has the lowest fatality rate due to COVID-19, it probably has the best recovery rate in the world, said Union Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan on Saturday. "As far as COVID-19 numbers are concerned, our fatality rate, 1.87%, is really low and we have probably the best recovery rate (75%) in the world. It is a great achievement in itself," Harsh Vardhan told ANI here. He further said the Indian scientists are working very hard to develop a vaccine and provide it to the world. We are confident that within this year we will provide the world with an effective vaccine to save the people," Harsh Vardhan said.
