Netherlands reports no new Covid-19 deaths in 24hrs

For the first time since March 12, the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) reported no new Covid-19 deaths in the past day.

At least 6,090 people have died from Covid-19 in the Netherlands, according to the RIVM.

The peak of deaths came on April 7, when 234 people died in a single 24-hour period.

Despite reporting zero new deaths today, the RIVM has in the past warned that patterns show a false dip in reported deaths on Mondays, owing to delayed reporting from the weekend.
