Three more coronavirus-linked deaths have been officially confirmed in Tajikistan over the past two days, bringing a total number of the coronavirus-linked deaths that have been officially registered in the country since June 21, 2021 to twenty-four.
Thus, a total number of the officially confirmed coronavirus-linked deaths in Tajikistan has reached 114 since April 30, 2020, when the infection index cases were officially confirmed in Dushanbe and Khujand.
Meanwhile, 103 new cases of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) have been officially confirmed in Tajikistan over the past two, bringing a total number of COVID-19 cases officially reported in the country since June 21 to 867.
According to the Ministry of Health and Social Protection of the Population (MoHSPP), 52 new cases of COVID-19 were reported on July 19 (It is the highest daily number of coronavirus cases officially confirmed in the country since June 21, 2021 – Asia-Plus) and 51 other cases of COVID-19 were reported on July 20.
The total number of the officially confirmed cases of COVID-19 infection in Tajikistan has reached 14,228 since April 30, 2020, when its index cases were confirmed in the country.
A MoHSPP says eighty-four COVID-19 patients recovered in the country over the past two days, bringing a total number of those who have been cured in Tajikistan since April 30, 2020 to 13,801 (99 percent).

The COVID-19 pandemic in Tajikistan is part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was confirmed to have spread to Tajikistan when its index cases, in Dushanbe and Khujand, were confirmed on 30 April 2020.
The World Health Organization (WHO)’s emergency committee warned last week that as four COVID-19 ‘variants of concern’ continue to circulate and dominate global epidemiology, it’s highly likely that new ones will emerge and start to spread across the world and those could be both more dangerous and hard to contain.
The coronavirus COVID-19 is reportedly affecting 220 countries and territories. According to COVID-19 data provided by Worldometer, coronavirus cases around the globe have been reported at 192,274,819 since China reported its first cases to the World Health Organization (WHO) in December 2019. Of them, 174,960,319 have recovered and 4,133,943 have died.
