Arab Weather - The number of Corona deaths around the world, as of Monday morning (November 1), reached 5 million and 16 thousand and 880 deaths, according to the data of the “Worldometer” website, which is concerned with monitoring the victims of the pandemic, and the total number of Corona virus infections in the world increased to more than 247 million infection.
The following is a list of the top ten countries in the total number of deaths from the Corona virus as of Monday:
Commenting on the number of deaths exceeding 5 million, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said: "These are not just numbers, these are fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, daughters and sons, families, friends and colleagues who have disappeared because of a ruthless virus that knows no borders."
He added: "5 million deaths should serve as a clear warning. We cannot let our guard down as other serious threats continue to allow the virus to thrive - such as misinformation, hoarding of vaccines, nationwide vaccination, and a lack of global solidarity."
Guterres urged "world leaders to fully support the global vaccination strategy that he launched with the World Health Organization last month."
"The best way to honor those five million people we've lost supporting health teams fighting the virus is to make vaccine equality a reality by accelerating our efforts and ensuring maximum vigilance to defeat the virus," he stressed.
It is noteworthy that the Corona virus has spread since its appearance in the Chinese city of Wuhan at the end of 2019, in more than 200 countries, causing the death of more than 5 million people around the world, and infecting 247 million and 547 thousand and 87, while the number of people recovering from it reached 224 million and 196 thousand and 4.
