Oman’s Health Ministry reported 99 new cases, raising the total to 2,747, including 495 recoveries.

There was no fatality in the country over the past 24 hours so the death toll remains at 11.

A significant number of COVID-19 patients – over 1.02 million – have recovered, but the disease has also claimed nearly 234,000 lives so far, as per data compiled by Johns Hopkins University in the US.
