More than 6,500 Coronavirus deaths in the world, in last 24 hours

Washington/London: – Coronavirus claimed more than 6,500 lives in the last 24 hours around the world and more than 70,000 new cases have been added in the same period. Maximum deaths have been reported from the United States. Whereas, Spain has initiated relaxing the lockdown, claiming that the pandemic is waning in the country. But the medical experts are criticising the decision of the Spanish government.

1,815 patients died in the United States in the last 24 hours. 900 of these are from the state of New York, whereas, more than 30,000 new cases were reported from the United States, on Saturday. Till date, 20,637 deaths have been reported from the United States and the number of cases has crosses 535,000. The John Hopkins University published information related to the United States.

The pandemic in the United Kingdom claimed 917 lives. This takes the number of deaths in the United Kingdom to over 10,000. There are nearly 84,000 cases of Coronavirus infection in the United Kingdom, as of now. The losses caused in the United Kingdom are still less as compared to the European countries Italy, Spain and France. But as per analysts, the pandemic will deliver a severe jolt even in the United Kingdom, in the near future.

619 deaths were reported from Spain, in the last 24 hours, taking the total number to 16,972. Whereas, there are 166,019 Coronavirus cases in the country. This information pertains only to the patients admitted to the hospitals and does not include cases in the nursing homes. If these numbers are taken into account, the number of cases and deaths in Spain could increase considerably. Despite this, Spain has initiated the process to relax the lockdown in certain areas. The medical experts are warning that the decision of the Spanish government, to relax the lockdown, before bringing the pandemic under total control, could prove dangerous.
