>>>Visit here the analysis of COVID-19 evolution in Europe: May-July 2020<<


EUROPA

The European Commission is coordinating a common European response to the coronavirus outbreak. We are taking resolute action to reinforce our public health sectors and mitigate the socio-economic impact in the European Union. We are mobilizing all means at our disposal to help our Member States coordinate their national responses and are providing objective information about the spread of the virus and effective efforts to contain it.

Cases by country

The epidemic is evolving differently in each country. Although many European countries still report a number of positive cases during May, the confinement measures taken by the leaders of Europe have resulted in a much smaller daily increase in cases compared to March and April. As of 25 May 2020, the countries with the highest number of reported cases are Russia (344,481 cases), the United Kingdom (260,216), Spain (235,772), Italy (229,858) and Germany (180,328). However, if we look at the number of inhabitants, the countries with the most infections are Luxembourg (with 637 cases per 100,000 inhabitants), Spain (504), Ireland (498), Belgium (492), and the United Kingdom (384)

The countries with the lowest number of infections to date are Malta (584), Cyprus (935), Latvia (1,047), Slovenia (1,468) and Slovakia (1,509). Again, looking at the number of reported cases per 100,000 inhabitants, the countries least affected by the pandemic to date are Greece (27), Slovakia (27), Bulgaria (34), Hungary (38) and Croatia (54).

Deaths by country

Regarding the lethality of the disease caused by the virus, those countries that have recorded the highest number of deaths to date are the United Kingdom (36,875), Italy (32,785), Spain (28,752), France (28,370) and Belgium (9,280). Taking into account the number of inhabitants of each country, the countries where the virus has shown the highest mortality are Belgium (80 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants), Spain (61), United Kingdom (54), Italy (54) and France (43).

Those countries that have thankfully recorded the lowest number of deaths are Malta (4 deaths), Cyprus (17), Latvia (22), Slovakia (28) and Lithuania (63). If we consider the number of inhabitants of each country, the countries with the least number of deaths caused by the virus are Slovakia (less than 1 death per 100,000 inhabitants), Latvia (1), Malta (1), Cyprus (1) and Greece (1).

During these times of crisis, across the European Union, countries, regions and cities are stretching out a helping hand to neighbors and assistance is given to those most in need: donations of protective equipment such as masks, cross-border treatments of ill patients and bringing stranded citizens home. This is European solidarity at its best.
