Italy has registered 1,350 new
COVID-19 cases in the last 24 hours, the health ministry said on
Monday.
That was down from 1,587 new cases on Sunday.
The infection figure for Monday is often lower than for other
days of the week because fewer swabs are taken on a Sunday.
Indeed, Monday's figure stemmed from 83,428 stabs, down by
around 28,000 from the previous day.
It should also be considered that the region of Abruzzo's data
did not arrive in time to be included in Monday's national
figures.
The ministry said 17 COVID-19 sufferers have died here in the
last 24 hours, up from 15 on Sunday.
Italy's coronavirus death toll is now 35,724.
