Coronavirus: Global death toll edges towards 100,000

Around the world, there are now more than 95,700 deaths that have been linked to Covid-19 and if the past days’ trend continues, this weekend will see that number pass the 100,000 mark.

The highest toll is in Italy where 18,279 people have died with Covid-19, followed by the US (16,684), Spain (15,447), France (12,228) and the UK (7,993).

Again, those numbers have to be read with caution as many countries don’t test people who died at home.
