The number of Covid deaths and cases remains relatively low in Iran. In the past 24 hours, the disease killed 46 people, as per figures released by the Health Ministry on Thursday, pushing the total fatalities in Iran to 140,204.

Ten days into Nowruz holidays, there are still no reports of a significant hike in new infections and deaths compared to the peak of the 6th wave of Covid in Iran that was driven mainly by the Omicron variant of the disease.
