Worldwide COVID-19 cases exceed 106 million people affected
As of the current date, August 10, 2025, the United States is experiencing a sharp rise in COVID-19 cases, particularly with the spread of the new XFG "Stratus" variant across the US and Europe. This trend places the US among the countries with the highest COVID-19 case counts, along with several European nations.
According to recent data and trends, Europe and the Americas have many countries with increasing trends of new COVID-19 hospitalizations and ICU admissions, indicating higher infection rates. Some frequently cited countries for high case counts throughout the pandemic and continuing into 2025 include the US, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, and several Western Pacific countries such as South Korea and Australia.
Official World Health Organization (WHO) dashboards provide aggregate counts, but the latest detailed country ranking as of August 2025 is not listed explicitly in the sources. Based on ongoing reporting patterns and prior data up to mid-2025, it is likely that the following countries are among the top 10 in total COVID-19 cases (not ranked, approximate):
- United States
- France
- Germany
- United Kingdom
- Italy
- Spain
- South Korea
- Australia
- Netherlands
- Belgium
For the most precise and up-to-date country rankings by total cases, it is recommended to consult the WHO COVID-19 Dashboard or authoritative databases like Our World in Data directly. These resources update cumulative cases continually, but the latest detailed numeric list for August 2025 was not included in the extracted results.
It is important to note that the total number of reported COVID-19 cases worldwide, as of current information, is 106,390,813, with 78,052,891 recoveries. In Kazakhstan, 195,112 cases of COVID-19 infection have been registered, with 175,901 recoveries, and 2,595 deaths due to the virus.

The information regarding the number of COVID-19 cases, recoveries, and deaths in Kazakhstan, India, and Brazil comes from informburo.kz, while the information about the number of coronavirus cases, recoveries, and deaths worldwide is provided by Worldometers.info. Almaty.tv reports the total number of coronavirus cases worldwide has reached 106 million.
The information about the number of COVID-19 cases, recoveries, and deaths is accurate as of the current time. However, for the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is recommended to consult official sources such as the WHO COVID-19 Dashboard or Our World in Data.
Science has shown an increasing trend of new COVID-19 hospitalizations and ICU admissions in countries like the United States, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Australia, Netherlands, and Belgium, which are often in the general news and related to health-and-wellness, particularly due to the latest authorized Medical-Conditions, such as the XFG "Stratus" variant.
These countries, including the US, are potential high candidates for the official World Health Organization (WHO) top 10 list of countries with the highest total COVID-19 cases, as per the ongoing reporting patterns and prior data up to mid-2025, although the latest detailed country ranking for August 2025 is not explicitly listed.
