Bahrain has witnessed no Covid-19 deaths for 10 consecutive days, for the first time since January this year.
The kingdom shares the merit with Qatar – the only two GCC countries to have achieved the feat as the remaining four – the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Oman – are still recording statistics of heartache and loss as a result of the virus.
Bahrain last registered a death from the virus on July 29, following yet another span of three days without fatalities – July 26 to 28. Qatar also recorded no deaths since July 28.
The UAE saw an average of four deaths daily during this period, having registered 32 fatalities from July 30 until Saturday.
Saudi Arabia recorded 94 deaths in this span – an average of more than 10 a day, while it was 12 for Oman which witnessed 104 deaths in this period. Kuwait tallied up to 57 deaths in this time, making an average of six per day.
Bahrain recorded 32 virus-related fatalities last month, which was the lowest since January which saw 23 deaths. The country has also been registering a major drop in new cases – averaging around 100 a day. Those under critical care and treatment have also dropped to single digits in the last week.
