COVID-19 | The Health Ministry's Github data repository reported a total of 47 Covid-19 fatalities yesterday (Nov 5), bringing the cumulative death toll to 29,202.

Malaysia has the highest number of deaths per capita in the Asean and East Asian regions with 876 deaths per 1 million population.

From the newly reported deaths yesterday, 8.5 percent or 4 died before they could receive treatment at a hospital.

Sarawak recorded the highest number of new deaths at 16, making up 34 percent of the newly reported fatalities.

The remaining deaths were in Johor (6), Selangor (5), Kuala Lumpur (5), Terengganu (4), Kedah (3), Kelantan (2), Pahang (2), Perak (2), Malacca (1) and Sabah (1).

No new deaths were reported in Negeri Sembilan, Perlis, Penang, Labuan and Putrajaya.

Sarawak has the highest number of death per million over the past two weeks and is 2.7 times higher than the national figure.

A total of 37 out of the 47 reported deaths or 78.7 percent happened in the last seven days.

The remaining deaths happened more than a week ago but were only recorded yesterday due to delays in data reporting.

An average of 74 Covid-19 deaths were reported daily in the last 30 days compared to the seven-day average of 53, indicating a downtrend.

As of yesterday, there were 66,240 active Covid-19 cases. This is a reduction of 5.4 percent from the 70,058 active infections a week ago.

Compared to 30 days ago, the number of active cases has fallen by 49.9 percent from 132,176.

Previously, the Health Ministry released deaths statistics together with the number of new Covid-19 cases in the evening. This had since changed.

Deaths statistics are now released after midnight along with other more detailed data. Malaysiakini reports them in the morning.
