Kerala is contributing to over 50% of new COVID cases right now.

Kerala is contributing to over 50% of new COVID cases right now. The reason for that is its robust testing system and success in identifying infections. This is borne out by ICMR"s latest sero-survey, which shows Kerala has performed the best in tracking infections in its population and also stopping COVID's spread. Ironically, Kerala's success in keeping its infection rate low also makes its population more vulnerable to infections right now.
