A whopping majority of infections and deaths in India happened in June - more than 400,000 cases and nearly 12,000 fatalities were reported last month, according to the Times of India newspaper.

To put that into perspective, India currently has 568,092 confirmed cases and 17,400 deaths, according to figures from the health ministry.
This means that around 70% of India's caseload happened in June. Experts had earlier warned that the country's peak would occur when the monsoon began - typically between July and August.

India eased out of its lockdown in early June even as cases were rising at an alarming rate.
On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi welcomed the second phase of "unlocking India" via a televised address. He urged citizens to not be careless and continue to enforce effective measures like social distancing, saying that many were not responsible enough in the first phase.
