THE HAGUE 29 Mar (ANA) - The death toll in the Netherlands has risen by 132 in the last 24 hours, bringing the total up to 771. 

The total number of cases in the country, which has a population of about 17 million, has also risen by 1,104 to a total of 10,866.

Establishing a death rate is no simple task.

The World Health Organization says about 3.4% of all cases have resulted in deaths, but scientists estimate that the death rate is actually much lower because many cases have mild symptoms and are not reported.

The rate of fatalities also depends on a range of factors including age, sex, pre-existing conditions and the health system you are in.
