The total deaths from Covid in Iran now stand at 140,407. T

There has been no change in the number of red and blue cities in terms of risk from the disease though. Currently, 36 cities are red and 58 are blue. In red cities, people face the highest level of risk form Covid. In blue ones, things have returned to normal.

The downward trend in the Covid deaths has been mainly attributed to the nationwide vaccination campaign that has been going on since last year. The inoculation process has seen over 147 million doses of vaccine administered to people in the country. Over 26 million booster shots have also been given.
