The number of fatalities has even surpassed that of the SARS outbreak in 2002-2003.
India, so far, seems to have contained the infection with three positive cases reported and no report of any other infected.
Nearly 400 Indians out of the batch of people evacuated from China have tested negative for the infected.
On Saturday, India said it will not allow any foreigner into India with a travel history to China after January 15.
