MADRID (Reuters) – Spain’s Health Ministry said recorded deaths from the coronavirus reached 27,119 on Thursday, rising by just one for the second day in a row as authorities fine-tune a new methodology for logging cases and deaths.
Just 38 deaths were reported over the last seven days, while a total of 237,906 diagnosed cases have been detected since the beginning of the outbreak, the ministry’s figures showed.
The government has warned the data may fluctuate in coming days as it adjusts to the new methodology.
