Another day another depressing Covid-19 milestone.. as the world sees the highest ever one-day spike in coronavirus cases in the last 24 hours.

According to the latest coronavirus stats provided by the website Worldometers, a staggering 721,756 new cases were recorded yesterday. Previously, the highest one-day global surge in new cases was reported on December 11th when 712,334 people tested positive in a day.

The novel coronavirus is still dominating several countries. While most of the countries are currently dealing with the second and third waves after successfully battling the first wave, some countries still haven't been able to contain the first wave of coronavirus infection. The United States, Brazil, United Kingdom, Russia, and India are particularly hit hardest by the flu bug these days.

As of today- 18th December, the global COVID-19 cases have exceeded 75.2 million while deaths have reached more than 1.66 million. Currently, over 20.7 million active cases are present while 52.8 million people have recovered completely.
