MANILA, July 13 (Reuters) - The Philippines' health ministry
on Monday reported 65 more novel coronavirus deaths and 836
additional infections.
In a bulletin, the ministry said total deaths have reached
1,599, while confirmed infections rose to 57,006, more than
triple when President Rodrigo Duterte eased the quarantine
measures in the capital in June to revive the economy.
Earlier on Monday, in an announcement delayed from Sunday,
the country posted its biggest daily rise in deaths due to the
virus at 162.
