Turkey’s daily death toll from coronavirus continues to slow down
28 people have died from coronavirus pandemic in the last 24 hours in Turkey, rising the country’s death toll from the virus to 4,199, announced Fahrettin Koca, Turkish Health Minister, on his Twitter account on Tuesday.
Turkey has so far reported 151,615 confirmed coronavirus cases. Of those, 112,895 patients have fully recovered from the infection and been discharged from hospital.
While 882 patients are being treated in intensive care unit, there are some 455 patients who are mechanically ventilated.
A total of 1,675,517 tests for coronavirus have so far been conducted in the country.
The rapid increase of the confirmed cases in Turkey has not overburdened the public healthcare system, and the preliminary case-fatality rate remained lower compared to many European countries. Discussions mainly attributed these to the country's relatively young population and high number of available intensive care units.
