With the new data, the total number of people infected with the new coronavirus during the pandemic is approaching 31 million (30,977,661).
The number of cases being monitored for covid-19 stands at 339,837. The term is given to designate cases reported in the last 14 days that were not discharged and did not result in death.
With today’s figures, the total number of deaths has reached 666,516. There are still 3,272 deaths under investigation. The occurrences involve cases in which the patient died, but the investigation if the cause was covid-19 still requires additional tests and procedures.
So far, 29,971,308 people have recovered from Covid-19. The number corresponds to 97% of those infected since the beginning of the pandemic.
On Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays, the number recorded daily tends to be lower due to the difficulty of feeding the databases by the municipal and state health departments. On Tuesdays, the number, in general, is higher due to the update of cases accumulated on weekends.
