India is meanwhile due to open up its vaccination drive to all adults, but many states don't have the stocks as hospitals reel from the vicious surge. At least 16 Covid patients and two nurses have died in the latest in a series of hospital fires in India, after an April 23 fire on the outskirts of Mumbai killed 13 Covid-19 patients, a few days after another blaze left 22 people dead at another clinic. The 20 million residents of the hard-hit capital New Delhi will also stay in lockdown for another week. The United States will restrict travel from India starting May 4 with exceptions for US citizens, aid workers, students and others. People arriving in Australia from India could face five years jail as the country strengthens an earlier travel ban in place until at least May 15. India should go into lockdown for several weeks to arrest the current devastating surge in Covid cases, top US pandemic advisor Anthony Fauci says. "And if you shut down, you don't have to shut down for six months. You can shut down temporarily to put an end to the cycle of transmission," he says. Brazil registers 82,266 Covid-19 deaths in April, the second consecutive monthly record as the country struggles with a devastating surge since the start of the year. Residents of rebel-held parts of northern Syria begin receiving vaccinations with medics among the first to be inoculated.

Argentina's President Alberto Fernandez extends a nightly curfew for Buenos Aires for three weeks and says he will seek to compel the city to close schools. Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta lifts and scales back some measures including reopening schools and allowing travel in and out of Nairobi. Italian cruise line Costa Cruises sets sail for the first time in more than four months, buoying an industry capsized by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Some 151.3 million cases have been declared since the virus was first discovered in China in December 2019, according to an AFP compilation of official data. At least 3,182,408 people have died of Covid-19 around the world.
