    Coronavirus: Are the worst-hit countries flattening the curve?
  • The total number of cases of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) rose to 1.4 million on Wednesday, including over 80,000 deaths.

    Most of those affected by the pandemic are located in the United States, Italy, Spain, Germany, etc., that remain the worst-hit.

    However, as per the latest trends, the outbreak in these countries has started to slow down.

    Here's what is happening in these countries.

  • The US has recorded the highest number of COVID-19 cases (nearly 4 lakh) and the third-highest death toll (over 12,000), according to the Johns Hopkins University's tracker.

    After the daily increase in cases peaked at 33,000 on April 4, the number of new cases has since fallen between 28,000-30,000.

    Whether the curve is actually flattening, however, will be known in the next few days.

    However, the worst seems to be over for the European nation as the daily increase in COVID-19 cases already peaked on March 21, when Italy recorded 6,600 new cases in a day.

    The daily increase in cases has since fallen, and on Tuesday, Italy reported roughly 3,000 new cases.
