HEREâS WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING:
DHAKA, Bangladesh â Authorities in Bangladesh say the country has registered the highest number of COVID-19 casualties and positive cases in a single day.
The news comes amid concern that the coronavirus pandemic could worsen over the next seven days.
The governmentâs Directorate General of Health Services said that 230 people died and 11,874 tested positive on Sunday. Thatâs a single-day record on both counts.
About 100,000 people have tested positive for the coronavirus in the last 10 days.
Experts say if the present trend continues already overwhelmed hospitals would struggle to provide treatment.
Bangladesh has been under a nationwide lockdown since July 1. But new records of positive cases are being reported everyday.
