164 patients deceased, 336 new patients, a total of 16,627 confirmed cases

Since April 3, 904 people have tested positive for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). This brings the total number of confirmed cases in the Netherlands to 16,627. Among them are 6,622 people who are or were admitted to hospital.

Hospital admissions for 336 patients were reported today. Since yesterday, 164 deaths were reported. Not all of the hospital admissions or deaths occurred within the last 24 hours. The ‘coronavirus data’ report includes a graph showing the number of hospital admissions by reporting day and deaths per day of death. Due to delays in reporting, these figures may change per day.

RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment   is receiving information on the outbreak of the novel coronavirus from multiple sources. The daily data reports from the National Intensive Care Evaluation (NICE) Foundation are now also included in the reports on coronavirus data in the Netherlands (only in Dutch). These figures are updated constantly by the NICE Foundation. For that reason, the figures in this report have a slight delay compared to the real-time situation.
