<p>Russia’s state coronavirus task force reported 1,254 virus deaths, up from 1,251 on Thursday and 1,247 on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The task force also reported 37,156 new confirmed cases.</p>
<p>The daily new infections in recent weeks appear to have taken a downward trend but still remain higher than during previous surges of the virus.</p>
<p>The latest surge in infections and deaths comes amid low vaccination rates and lax public attitudes toward taking precautions.</p>
<p>Fewer than 40% of Russia’s nearly 146 million people have been fully vaccinated, even though the country approved a domestically developed Covid-19 vaccine months before most of the world.</p>
<p>In total, the coronavirus task force has reported over 9.2 million confirmed infections and more than 261,000 Covid-19 deaths, by far the highest death toll in Europe.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Some experts believe the true figure is even higher.</p>
<p>Reports by Russia’s statistical service, Rosstat, that tally coronavirus-linked deaths retroactively reveal much higher mortality.</p>
<p>They say 462,000 people with Covid-19 died between April 2020 and September of this year.</p>
<p>Russian officials have said the task force only includes deaths for which Covid-19 was the main cause, and uses data from medical facilities.</p>
<p>Rosstat uses wider criteria for counting virus-related deaths and takes its numbers from civil registry offices where registering a death is finalised.</p>
