France has reported more than 12,500 new coronavirus cases — the third day that the tally has held above 10,000, as the quick spread of the more contagious Delta variant of Covid-19 led to a jump in new infections, according to Reuters.
The health ministry reported 12,532 new cases today, against 10,949 on Saturday, taking the total over 5.87 million.
At the same time, France recorded 891 people in intensive care units with the new coronavirus, up one from the previous day, while the total number of deaths in hospitals rose by five to 111,472.
