Coronavirus: Saudi Arabia records 955 new daily recoveries, death toll hits 200

Saudi Arabia has recorded a significant increase in daily recoveries with 955 new ones while maintaining a relatively low death toll that has reached 200 with nine new fatalities, a health ministry spokesman said on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, a steady increase of 1,595 new cases were confirmed over the past 24 hours, raising the total to 30,251, according to spokesman Dr. Mohammed al-Abd al-Ali.
As the number of recoveries continues to grow in the Kingdom, the recovery time varies from one patient to another, al-Abd al-Ali added. Some recover within days while others might take weeks, he said.
Saudi Arabia authorities have implemented several precautionary measures to slow the spread of the virus in the Kingdom. However, authorities partially lifted some of those restrictions with the start of the Muslim holy month Ramadan.
