Turkiye reports over 22,000 new coronavirus cases

More than 146.3M vaccine shots given in Turkiye so far, says Health Ministry

ANKARA (AA) - Turkiye reported 22,345 new coronavirus cases on Wednesday.

According to the Health Ministry, 118 related deaths and 32,364 recoveries were recorded in the past 24 hours, and as many as 324,058 virus tests were done.

To counter the spread of the virus, Turkiye has administered more than 146.3 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines since it launched an immunization drive in January 2021.

Over 57.74 million people have received a first vaccine jab, while some 52.91 million have been immunized twice and 27.43 million got a booster shot.

As the virus seems to be receding, Turkiye scrapped the outdoor mask mandate in early March, a longtime measure to stem the spread of COVID-19.

Since December 2019, the virus has claimed over 6 million lives in at least 192 countries and regions, with more than 462 million cases reported worldwide, according to the US' Johns Hopkins University.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
