Claim: India has the second fastest doubling rate among the countries with the highest number of COVID-19 cases.
Fact-check: India does not have the second fastest doubling rate of COVID-19 cases at the threshold of 1.5 lakh cases - FACTLY
Verdict: india's doubling rate to 1.5 lakh cases is slower than 4 other countries at that number and much slower at the threshold of 1 lakh cases. it is not proper to compare the doubling rate with date as a reference since the doubling rate in a specific country will depend on the number of cases and the stage of covid-19 spread. hence the claim is misleading.
