Iran is still facing the first epidemic wave, the Iranian Health Ministry said Tuesday, refuting suspicions of a second wave the day after the announcement of the highest number of daily deaths linked to the new coronavirus.
“Currently, the coronavirus reaches a peak in the border provinces or cities which did not know it during the first months of the epidemic,” explained Sima Sadat Lari, spokesman for the Ministry of Health, when asked by the official Irna agency.
“Therefore, we are still in the presence of the first wave in the country,” she added.
This is not a second epidemic wave: it would be if the provinces that had already recorded “a significant peak” of contaminations again recorded an increase in infections, she said.
Mme Lari announced another 147 deaths in 24 hours on Tuesday, bringing the total to 10,817.
And 2,457 new cases have been identified, bringing the total to 227,662, she added during her daily press briefing.
