Bangladesh yesterday saw daily COVID-19 cases cross the 3,000-mark for the first time this month with 3,200 people testing positive for the virus.

Earlier, 3,009 coronavirus cases were recorded on July 29, and the number remained below the 3000-mark since then, thanks to inadequate testing.

In 24 hours till 8:30 am yesterday, the virus claimed 46 lives -- the second-highest number of daily deaths this month. On August 4, the country saw 50 deaths from Covid.

In most of the days this month, the daily deaths were below 40.
