On today's Covid-19 news wrap, Vikram Chandra analyses the geographical concentration of Coronavirus in India.

Data shows us that the Coronavirus crisis in India is centred around a couple of cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Thane, Pune, Indore and Ahmedabad.

Fresh cases in the country are also coming from a handful of states such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Delhi.

These states account for over 75% of the cases in India, while Maharashtra and Gujarat have a high mortality rate, Delhi and Tamil Nadu display a fairly low death rate.
