The death toll from the epidemic exceeds 1.3 million worldwide and the number of new infections is near record. The coronavirus has so far infected more than 53 million people.
The spread of the epidemic in the world accelerated slightly, according to data from Johns Hopkins University in the United States this Saturday morning.
In one day, more than 639,000 new infections were registered. On Friday, the increase was somewhat more moderate: 611 thousand fell ill compared to the previous day. There were several days of the week when the number of new infections exceeded 600,000, showing both a record value and a more rapid spread of the epidemic than before. In September and October, the number of infected people generally increased between 200 and 400 thousand per day.

By Saturday morning, the death toll from the epidemic had exceeded 1.3 million and the number of people cured exceeded 34.4 million. However, the data above and those previously reported from Johns Hopkins University should take into account that epidemiological protocols are different in countries around the world and testing capabilities are not the same, so the actual number of people infected may differ from published figures.
Saturday’s data also shows that the majority of people in the United States continue to get sick: 10.7 million have been infected with the coronavirus so far, an increase of nearly 200,000 in one day.
And an interactive map from Johns Hopkins University shows where the pandemic is in different parts of the world.
In Hungary, the number of registered infected people rose by more than 5,000 to almost 132,000 on Friday, and the number of actively infected people is approaching 100,000. So far, the epidemic has claimed 2,883 deaths. (The latest Hungarian data will be published on the official government portal on Saturday, expected after 9 am).
