Emergency Commissioner and Civil
Protection Chief Angelo Borrelli said Tuesday that 2,503 people
have now died with the coronavirus in Italy, 345 more than
Monday. That was down slightly on the daily rise of 349 on
Monday, which, in turn, was slight lower than Sunday's figure
for fatalities. The number of new cases of COVID-19 grew
again, however, after a small deceleration on Monday.
Borrelli said 26,062 people are currently infected with the
coronavirus in Italy, 2,989 more than Monday. The rise in new
cases of contagions was 2,470 on Monday, compared to 2,853 on
Sunday. Borrelli said that 2,941 people in Italy have now
recovered from the coronavirus, 192 more than Monday. On
Monday the rise in those recovered was 414. The overall
number of people infected in Italy, including the death and
those who have recovered, has reached 31,056.
