Paris:

More than half a million people have been killed by the new coronavirus, including nearly two-thirds in the United States and Europe, according to an AFP count at 10:00 p.m. GMT Sunday, according to official sources.

The official number of deaths for the disease now stands at 500,390 deaths for 10,099,576 cases recorded worldwide. The United States had the highest number of deaths (125,747), followed by Brazil (57,622) and the United Kingdom (43,550).

The counts, using data collected by AFP from national authorities and information from the World Health Organization (WHO), probably only reflect a fraction of the actual number of infections.

Many countries only test the most serious cases.
