(Dunya News) – The number of coronavirus infection cases across the world has risen to nearly 9.5 million and the pandemic has so far claimed over 485,000 lives.
At least 9,326,400 cases of COVID-19 have been registered in 196 countries and territories. Of these, at least 4,574,300 are considered recovered.
The tallies, using data collected by AFP from national authorities and information from the World Health Organization (WHO), probably reflect only a fraction of the actual number of infections.
