Amsterdam, June 23 (RHC)-- Dutch health authorities reported no new deaths overnight resulting from the pandemic for the first time since the beginning of March.
Officially the Netherlands has reported 49,658 cases of infection, with 69 people testing positive over the last 24 hours. In all 6,090 people have died.
"There has been no report of any deaths," the National Institute for Public Health (RIVM) said on its website. The RIVM warned however that "there is a delay between the day a patient was admitted to hospital or died and when it was actually reported", meaning deaths over the weekend may not yet have been flagged up.
