    Question

    Coronaviruses are a family of RNA viruses that typically cause mild respiratory disease in humans. A novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) was found to cause a serious disease, COVID-19, starting in Wuhan, China in December 2019.

    How many (cumulative) total confirmed cases of COVID-19 will be reported in the Netherlands on April the 27th at 10 AM GMT the RIVM?

    The Netherlands National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) reports daily cumulative case numbers, which is the sum of all cases that have occurred on and before the most recent update. This includes all recovered and deceased cases.

    In case RIVM no longer reports the relevant numbers, figured made available by the WHO, or other sources deemed credible by an admin.
