One person dies from COVID-19 every 17 seconds in Europe: WHO
One person is dying from coronavirus every 17 seconds in Europe, the regional head of World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Hans Kluge, has said. He said this after new COVID-19 cases slowed down last week across Europe to 1.8 million cases, compared with 2 million the week before last. "It's a small signal, but it's a signal nevertheless," Kluge stated.
