23 Million Cases

Covid-19 is still a serious threat.

It is continuing its spread across the world, with more than 23 million confirmed cases in 188 countries and territories. And at least 800,000 people have lost their lives. 

Cases are continuing to surge in many countries; even those which had apparent success in suppressing initial outbreaks are now seeing infections rise again – but there are also countries that are coping well.

 

Amongst the twelve worst-affected countries with confirmed cases – the list remains the same with the sole exception of the UK being displaced by Argentina. These 12 countries’ combined caseloads account for 73.5% of the world total.
