With 13.09 lakh confirmed cases and 78,795 deaths, United States is the worst affected country.

United Kingdom, too, has witnessed a sudden surge the deaths with the toll now standing at 31,662. Italy (30,395 deaths), Spain (26,478 deaths) and France (26,313 deaths) are the other countries that have the highest death toll globally.

As far as number of confirmed cases is concerned, Spain (2.23 lakh cases), Italy (2.18 lakh cases) and United Kingdom (2.16 lakh cases) have the highest number of cases following the U.S.

There are global concerns tha the actual number of confirmed Covid-19 cases could be much higher than is being reported now given the fact that the testing rate in many countries is low.

Even as daily death tolls have shown some decline, expert are fearing a second wave of infections as a fallout of easing lockdown restrictions.
