Coronavirus is continuing its spread across the world with more than 58 million confirmed cases in 190 countries
and almost 1.4 million deaths.
The virus is surging in many regions and countries that had apparent success in suppressing initial outbreaks are
also seeing infections rise again.
Where are cases and deaths rising?
Coronavirus cases have surged over the past few months in several regions of the world and large numbers of
new infections are being reported daily.
The most recent figures show almost 500,000 new cases reported in 24 hours.
North America is currently seeing the steepest rise in new cases. The World Health Organization (WHO) has
warned that health workers and health systems "are being pushed to the breaking point".
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said more cases of Covid-19 had been reported in the past
four weeks than in the first six months of the pandemic.
US has most cases and highest death toll
The US has recorded more than 12 million cases and more than 250,000 deaths from coronavirus, the highest
figures in the world.
Daily cases have been at record levels since early November, and in a tweet on Saturday President Donald Trump
appeared to admit that the disease is "running wild" in the US as well as other countries.
On Thursday, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told Americans to avoid travel for
the Thanksgiving holiday on 26 November to reduce the risk of infection.
Europe cases level off
Daily cases have risen in many European countries since July.
Spain, Italy and the UK have all recorded more than one million cases, France more than two million, but their
numbers have either stabilised or started to fall in recent days.
WHO Europe director Hans Kluge says "there is light at the end of the tunnel, but it will be a tough six months".
He said one person was dying from Covid-19 in Europe every 17 seconds.
