The World Health Organisation has released ‘sobering’ statistics around the Covid-19 pandemic estimating that around 15 million people have died across the globe since January 2020.
The staggering figures were concluded by counting those who died from the virus, as well as others who died due to the pressure on hospitals across the globe leading to delays in other treatments.
In a statement on Thursday, it was confirmed by the WHO: “New estimates from the World Health Organization show that the full death toll associated directly or indirectly with the Covid-19 pandemic between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021, was approximately 14.9 million).”
