Indonesia has maintained it unenviable slot atop the global average rankings for deaths attributable to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Speaking earlier this week, national COVID-19 task force spokesman Wiku Adisasmito said the country’s average mortality rate was currently sitting at 4.68%, a figure in his own words “not good news, considering that the global mortality rate is 3.79%.”
Wiku did add, however, that the death rate in the 17,500 island nation was declining, and had done so gradually since April, when the death rate was a disturbing 8.64%.
The rates for May and June were 6.68% and 5.56% respectively with July dipping further to 4.81%, figure that the spokesman deemed necessary of “(work) to press the national COVID-19 mortality rate below the global average.”
