New Dutch coronavirus cases fall sharply after lockdown: data
November 9, 2020
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - The number of new coronavirus cases registered in the Netherlands fell sharply on Monday, continuing a decline that began in early November after entering a second near-lockdown on Oct. 13.
There were 4,680 new cases reported on Monday, according to official data from the National Institute for Health (RIVM), compared to 5,664 on Sunday and less than half the all-time high of 11,119 registered on Oct. 30.
Note: Regional autumn hollidays during a week in schools from October 10 to October 25 could play a role.
