At least 3,003,344 infections have been detected, including 209,388 deaths, mostly in Europe where there are 1,393,779 cases and 126,233 deaths.
The United States, the country where the pandemic is progressing the most rapidly, has 980,008 cases including 55,637 deaths.
The number of detected cases is believed to represent only a fraction of the true number of infections because most countries carry out only limited testing.
