These data now combine confirmed and possible cases and deaths, which is the reason for the big jump in the totals between the last update and Wednesday. Confirmed and possible statistics had previously been segregated throughout the pandemic. The total cases on Friday were reported as 2,080,612 cases and 32,863 deaths, but if the possible cases were included, these would be a total of 2,389,506 cases and 35,706 deaths.
