Global death toll passes 3m as pandemic ‘grows at an alarming rate’ Robin McKie Science Editor © Provided by The Guardian Photograph: Chandan Khanna/AFP/Getty Images A grim Covid-19 milestone was passed on Saturday when it was revealed that the global death toll from the disease had passed three million. The news was described as “chilling” by Wellcome Trust director Jeremy Farrar, who warned that the true number of deaths was probably much higher. “Worryingly, this pandemic is still growing at an alarming rate,” he said. “Hundreds of thousands are dying every day.” According to the Covid-19 dashboard, run by Johns Hopkins University, there have been more than 140 million cases of the disease since the pandemic began last year with the official death toll reaching 3,001,068 yesterday morning. The worst affected country was the US with more than 31 million cases and more than 560,000 deaths.
