Coronavirus is still spreading around the world, with more than 100 million confirmed cases and 2.2 million deaths across nearly 200 countries.

The countries with the highest number of confirmed cases are the US, India and Brazil and they are closely followed by a number of European countries.

But the virus has surged across the world and very few places have managed to avoid it.

This information is regularly updated but may not reflect the latest totals for each country.

** The past data for new cases is a three day rolling average. Due to revisions in the number of cases, an average cannot be calculated for this date.

Source: Johns Hopkins University, national public health agencies and UN population data

Figures last updated: 5 February 2021, 09:08 GMT

Note: The map, table and animated bar chart in this page use a different source for figures for France and the UK from that used by Johns Hopkins University, which results in a slightly lower overall total. US figures do not include Puerto Rico, Guam or the US Virgin Islands.

The true extent of the first outbreaks last year is unclear because limited testing meant most cases were not confirmed.

But tests are much more widely available in many countries now and the data shows a steep increase in the number of cases.

Official figures may also not fully reflect the true scale of deaths in many countries. Data on excess deaths, a measure of how many more people are dying than would be expected based on the previous few years, may give a better indication of the actual numbers in many cases.

Who has vaccinated the most?

Several coronavirus vaccines have now been approved for use, either by individual countries or groups of countries, such as the European Union and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Of the 71 countries and territories administering vaccines and publishing rollout data, 50 are high-income nations, 21 are middle-income and none are low-income.

Some countries have secured more vaccine doses than their populations need, while other lower-income countries are relying on a global plan known as Covax, which is seeking to ensure everyone in the world has access to a vaccine.

WHO director-general said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has warned that despite the growing number of different vaccines, current manufacturing capacity meets only a fraction of global need.

"Allowing the majority of the world's population to go unvaccinated will not only perpetuate needless illness and deaths and the pain of ongoing lockdowns, but also spawn new virus mutations as Covid-19 continues to spread among unprotected populations," he told Foreign Policy magazine.

The map above, using figures collated by Our World in Data - a collaboration between Oxford University and an educational charity - shows the total number of doses given per 100 people, mostly first doses.

The US (35 million) and China (31 million) have given the most doses overall, while the UK has administered more than 10 million so far.

But when breaking the figures down by population, looking at doses administered per 100 people in the 10 countries giving the most vaccinations, Israel, the UAE and the UK top the list - as the chart above shows.

Most countries are prioritising the over-60s, health workers and people who are clinically vulnerable.

Where are cases still high?

As populations await vaccine roll-out, cases are either stable or falling in a number of regions.

Europe

Daily cases have now fallen in most European countries, with Spain and France notable exceptions.

The UK and Spain have seen the highest numbers in recent weeks, with Russia and France not far behind.

Lockdown restrictions have been tightened in many of the worst-affected countries.

North America

The US has recorded more than 26 million cases and 453,000 deaths, the highest figures in the world.

Daily cases were at record levels in early January but they are now falling. Almost 90,000 coronavirus patients are in hospital, but those numbers are dropping too.

Canada, which has a far lower death rate than the US, also experienced a winter surge but daily cases are also falling there now.

Asia

Asia was the centre of the initial outbreak that spread from China in early 2020, but the number of cases and deaths there has been lower than in Europe and North America.

The region saw a large rise in the number of cases last autumn, driven by a surge in infections in India, one of the most densely populated countries in the world.

India has seen nearly 11 million confirmed cases, the second-highest in the world after the US, but the number of infections has fallen in recent months.

Other Asian countries, like Indonesia and Malaysia, are still trying to bring their current outbreaks under control.

Middle East

Several countries in the Middle East have had deadly coronavirus outbreaks over the past 12 months, with Iran, Iraq and Israel having seen the highest numbers.

All three countries appear to have now brought infections under control after recent surges - although the drop in cases has stalled in Iran and Iraq.

Israel's efforts have been helped by its vaccination programme, with about five million doses administered.

Africa

Africa has recorded more than 3.6 million cases, but the true extent of the pandemic in many African countries is not known as testing rates are low.

South Africa, with more than 1.4 million cases, is the worst affected country on the continent, according to official figures. A variant of the virus discovered in South Africa has also been found in a number of other countries.

Morocco, Egypt, Ethiopia, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Nigeria and Kenya have also recorded more than 100,000 cases.

Latin America

In Latin America, there has been particular concern about a variant of the virus which has spread rapidly in Brazil.

The country has more than nine million confirmed cases and the world's second highest death toll. It is currently in the middle of a second surge in infections.

Argentina, Colombia, Mexico and Peru have all recorded more than one million cases and continue to see high numbers of daily confirmed cases.

Oceania

Australia and New Zealand have been praised for their response to the pandemic, with both countries having seen comparatively few deaths.

In a sign of how effective their measures have been, both currently have a lower average number of cases than French Polynesia, a sprawling network of islands in the Pacific Ocean.

Other islands in the region have tried to remain free of coronavirus, but most have seen at least a few cases.

How did coronavirus spread?

Covid-19 was first detected in the city of Wuhan, China, in late 2019 but the outbreak spread quickly across the globe in the first months of 2020.

It was declared a global pandemic by the WHO on 11 March 2020.

A pandemic is when an infectious disease is passing easily from person to person in many parts of the world at the same time.

About this data

The data used on this page comes from a variety of sources. It includes figures collated by Johns Hopkins University, data from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, national governments and health agencies, as well as UN data on populations.

When comparing figures from different countries it is important to bear in mind that not all governments are recording coronavirus cases and deaths in the same way. This makes like for like comparisons between countries difficult.

Other factors to consider include: different population sizes, the size of a country's elderly population or whether a particular country has a large amount of its people living in densely-populated areas. In addition, countries may be in different stages of the pandemic.
