España supera los 100.000 contagiados y registra más de 800 muertos por quinto día consecutivo | Italia alarga el confinamiento 10 días más, hasta el 13 de abril | La ONU advierte de que es la crisis “más difícil” desde la II Guerra Mundial
España registra 864 muertos con coronavirus en 24 horas, según el Ministerio de Sanidad, un nuevo máximo diario, y el quinto día que se superan los 800 fallecimientos. España acumula 9.053 fallecidos y más de 102.000 contagiados desde el inicio de la crisis sanitaria. Más de 22.500 personas se han recuperado y más de 51.000 han requerido hospitalización (casi 5.900, en la UCI, un incremento del 5% con respecto al martes). “La evolución de nuevos hospitalizados e ingresados en UCI va disminuyéndose, parece que está en la buena dirección”, ha explicado Fernando Simón, director del Centro de Coordinación de Emergencias Sanitarias, aunque se recuerda que la curva de la transmisión no está en el mismo punto en todas las comunidades autónomas. El secretario general de la ONU, António Guterres, ha afirmado que el coronavirus es la crisis “más difícil” a la que se enfrenta el mundo desde la II Guerra Mundial, al tiempo que ha lanzado un plan para contrarrestar los impactos socieconómicos de la pandemia. “Por un lado, es una enfermedad que representa una amenaza para todos en el mundo y, por otro, tiene un impacto económico que traerá una recesión sin precedentes probablemente en el pasado reciente”, ha señalado Guterres en una rueda de prensa virtual de Naciones Unidas. En Italia, donde casi 12.500 personas han muerto desde el inicio de la crisis, el ministro de Sanidad, Roberto Speranza, ha confirmado que se extenderán las medidas de confinamiento 10 días más, hasta el 13 de abril. La pandemia ha afectado a más de 873.000 personas en el mundo y deja más de 43.000 muertos, según la Universidad Johns Hopkins, cuyo recuento revela que EE UU ha superado esta madrugada los 4.000 fallecimientos.
