“We are planning to double the number of beds needed; there will be around 15,000 beds in another 10 days or so. This is the biggest disaster of the century,” said Delhi health minister Satyendar Jain in a virtual press conference on Thursday. The 1,877 new cases came from testing 5,360 samples, translating to a test confirmation rate of over 35%. They are not wearing masks and going to markets which will lead to increase in the number of cases. On Wednesday, the CM said Delhi would need 65,000 beds by mid-July and 150,000 by the end of the month.
