No new coronavirus deaths in Netherlands as cases fall

The Netherlands registered 69 new coronavirus cases on Monday, and no deaths from the disease, the country's health authorities said in their daily update.

It was the first 24-hour period with no new deaths registered by the National Institute of Health (RIVM) since March 9.

Dutch cases have declined gradually since reaching a peak at the start of April. Lockdown measures have been gradually phased out, though social distancing rules remain in place.
