Poland's total number of Covid-19 cases has surpassed two million, according to health ministry data, as the country grappled with a third wave of the pandemic.

The country of 38 million has reported 2,010,244 coronavirus cases and 48,807 deaths in total since the start of the pandemic, the ministry data showed, according to Reuters.

Poland surpassed one million cases at the start of December as the second wave of the pandemic slowed, but has faced a recent consistent and steep rise in cases fuelled by the more contagious variant of the virus first found in Britain.
