Coronavirus
More Than 2.9M People Have Been Infected With Covid-19 Worldwide
Coronavirus is continuing its spread across the world, with about 2.9 million confirmed cases in 185 countries as of Sunday afternoon, according to a running tally by U.S.-based Johns Hopkins University.
The university’s data showed that the number of virus-linked deaths reached 203,332, while the number of people who recovered stands at 824,002.
A total of 2,900,422 cases are recorded worldwide, and the US is the hardest-hit with the highest number of infections and deaths — more than 939,200 and nearly 54,000, respectively.
While Italy has the second-highest death toll with 26,384, Spain has the second-highest cases — over 223,700.
The virus was first detected in Wuhan, China late last year.
Despite the rising number of cases, most who contract the virus suffer mild symptoms before making a recovery.
