Turkey recorded 1,815 new coronavirus infections and 1,504 recoveries in the past 24 hours. It also confirmed the death of 72 people, taking the death toll to 9,296.
Committees in charge with Turkey’s COVID-19 mitigation strategy will meet next week to discuss topics of tracking, supervision and warnings, the interior ministry.
“The new measures should follow the committees’ meetings, but no date was given for their announcement,” the report said.
