But health ministry says daily number of new cases have fallen. FMTNews Iran
Iran announced 149 new deaths in 24 hours – one every 10 minutes – from the novel coronavirus.
However, health ministry spokesman Kianoush Jahanpour painted a grimmer picture, tweeting that the rate of new infections had risen to 50 an hour and “one dies every 10 minutes”. Jahanpour appealed for Iranians to “make a conscious decision concerning travel, days out and family visits during Nowruz”, the Persian New Year holiday.
Several provinces have ordered the closure of hotels, and Iran has announced the rare shuttering of four important Shiite holy sites.
