Our thoughts are with the people of India right now as they combat a devastating second wave of Covid-19 infections. The country of 1.4 billion has recorded nearly 18 million cases of the virus overall and currently accounts for at least one-third of all confirmed Covid-19 cases in the world— the highest share reached by a single country since the early stages of the pandemic. Many experts fear that these startling statistics are underreported. Some models estimate cases are five times higher than reported, and one believes cases could be 30 times greater than records show.

This Overview shows New Delhi, India’s capital. This section of the city was planned by British architects Sir Edwin Lutyens and Sir Herbert Baker with a design centered around two promenades — the Rajpath and the Janpath — that run perpendicular to each other and intersect at the center of this image.
