24,392 patients have recovered and been discharged from hospital after being cured in the country.
Until now, 755,445 tests for the virus have been conducted in Italy.
Italy is one of the world's centers of active coronavirus cases. Due to the finite number of tests performed, the real number of infected people in Italy, as in other countries, is estimated to be higher than the official count.
On 19 March, Italy became the country with the highest number of confirmed coronavirus deaths in the world.
