Egypt’s Health Ministry announced that 51 new coronavirus cases were detected on Tuesday, upping the total number of confirmed cases since the outbreak of the pandemic in the country to 283,813.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Spokesman for the Health Ministry Dr Khaled Megahed said five patients have died from the virus over the past 24 hours, raising the death toll to 16,457.<\/p>\n
As many as 769 patients were discharged from isolation hospitals after receiving necessary medical care, taking the number of recovered cases to 225,068 so far, the spokesman said.<\/p>\n
Egypt successfully is past a third wave of the pandemic, reporting daily coronavirus counts that are less than 100 for the first time since October last year.<\/p>\n
Egypt has produced a million Sinovac vaccine doses locally and has imported millions of jabs to vaccinate 40 percent of its 100 million population by the end of the year, a step that the World Health Organization has hailed.<\/p>\n
