• The number of daily deaths falls to 410, the lowest figure in almost a month

A total of 20,453 people have died from coronavirus in Spain, representing an increase of 410 deaths in the last 24 hours, according to the latest data issued by the Ministry of Health.

This Sunday the daily death toll has dropped considerably compared to yesterday, Saturday, when 565 deaths were registered. The number of deaths, 410 in 24 hours, is the lowest in almost a month, since March 22, when 394 deaths were recorded.

The total number of coronavirus cases now totals 195,944, so in the last 24 hours 4,218 new cases have been registered.

In Spain 77,357 patients have recovered from the virus, 2,695 more than Saturday.

The daily summaries alternate between bad news and less bad, because in times of a pandemic such as this, there is nothing good.

Right now, the country is living in a kind of statistical limbo waiting for the curve to fall after the levelling of data.
