The death toll from coronavirus in Germany has climbed to 1,446 on Sunday, according to figures released by local authorities.

Axar.az reports citing Turkish media.

Data analysis firm Risklayer and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, which compiled real-time figures from nearly 400 local health authorities, reported 169 new deaths over the past 24 hours.

With 5,024 new cases, the number of people infected with the virus increased to 96,108 in the country.

More than 26,400 people were reported to have recovered from the virus.

Despite the slowing trend in new coronavirus infections, which remained below 6,200 for more than a week, the country recorded on Saturday its biggest daily jump in COVID-19 deaths.
