In fact, earlier on 15th July, 528 new corona patients were found here.
Talking about entire Maharashtra, 4,174 new cases of coronavirus were reported and 65 people died on Wednesday, raising the number of infected to 64,97,872 and the death toll to 1,37,962. Let me tell you that Mumbai has not only seen an increase in the new case, but the positivity rate has also gone up here.
