Czech Republic sees highest ever Sunday increase in Covid-19 cases

The Czech Republic registered another 7,301 new coronavirus cases on Sunday, with new case numbers falling under 10,000 for the first time in five days. The case count, however was still the biggest Sunday increase since March, according to data released by the Health Ministry. The Sunday figures are usually smaller than on other days because fewer tests are carried out on this day. The number of active cases in the Czech Republic stands at 158,515. So far, 2,201 people have died from Covid-19, with almost one-third of the deaths occurring last week.
