Coronavirus: Italy's Death Toll Overtakes China's

Coronavirus has killed more people in Italy than in any other country, after deaths there rose by 427 in a day.




The number of deaths now stands at 3,405, which is more than in China where the virus originated last year.



There have been 3,245 reported deaths in China, but there have been questions over the reliability of its data.

A lockdown imposed on 12 March in Italy has been extended beyond the original 25 March end date. Nearly all Italians have been told to stay at home.

Despite these measures, the number of new cases and deaths has continued to spiral.

There have been 220,000 cases of the virus worldwide with more than 9,000 deaths.
