ROME, March 18-- Numbers for both new deaths and new cures from Italy's coronavirus outbreak released Wednesday are the highest on record, as health officials scramble to find enough doctors to confront the outbreak's spread. According to data released Wednesday by Angelo Borrelli, head of Italy's Civil Protection Department, a total of 475 Italians died in the last 24 hours from COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. Another 1,084 people were cured over the same span. Both figures were the highest one-day recorded since the virus outbreak began in Italy last month. |
