Peru is fast approaching the group of countries with the most cases in the world. The registered case in Lima, have exceeded 100,000 infected. 


The country registered 8,805 new cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) in a single day, according to yesterday's report by the Ministry of Health (Minsa). 

In total, 164,476 infected people have already been counted since the tests began. Lima concentrates 61% of total infections (more than 100,000 cases).

With the new number of daily infections, a new brand was imposed again, since the previous day it had been just over 7 thousand. 

This number has been increasing: almost two weeks ago it was 4,000, then it went to 5,000 and then it continued to rise until reaching its highest peak yesterday. In other words, the contagion curve, instead of going down, keeps going up.

These figures place Peru near the top 10 countries with the most cases of coronavirus. According to the report of the Johns Hopkins University & Medicine portal, at the close of this edition, the tenth place was occupied by Turkey, with 163,942 infections.

The country in the first place is the United States, with 1,839,130 cases and 106,241 deaths.
