Tehran - IRNA - The spokesman of the Ministry of Health, Treatment and Medical Education said: 259,652 people in the country have been definitively infected with the corona virus so far and with the death of 203 people in the last 24 hours, the number of corona deaths in the country has reached 13,032
The number of deaths from coronavirus in Iran is nearly triple what Iran's government claims, a BBC Persian service investigation has found.
The government's own records appear to show almost 42,000 people died with Covid-19 symptoms up to 20 July, versus 14,405 reported by its health ministry.
The number of people known to be infected is also almost double official figures: 451,024 as opposed to 278,827.
