New Delhi/IBNS: India, the country of 1.3 billion people, has reported 12,881 fresh Novel Coronavirus cases and 334 deaths in 24 hours between Wednesday and Thursday mornings.

Amid the deteriorating condition worldwide, experts in the United Kingdom have suggested that treating Coronavirus patients with low doses of the generic steroid drug dexamethasone have been effective in reducing death rates.
