The novel coronavirus has killed at least 1,043,206 people since the outbreak emerged in China last December, according to the worldometer on Monday.
More than 35,509,032 cases of coronavirus have been registered. Of these, at least 26,710,859 are now considered recovered.
The tallies probably reflect only a fraction of the actual number of infections as many countries are testing only symptomatic or the most serious cases, report agencies.
On Sunday, 3,912 new deaths and 265,563 new cases were recorded worldwide.
Based on latest reports, the countries with the most new deaths were India with 903, followed by United States with 390 and Brazil with 365.
The United States is the worst-hit country with 209,734 deaths from 7,418,737 cases. At least 2,911,699 people have been declared recovered.
After the US, the hardest-hit countries are Brazil with 146,352 deaths from 4,915,289 cases, India with 102,685 deaths from 6,623,815 cases, Mexico with 79,088 deaths from 761,665 cases, and United Kingdom with 42,350 deaths from 502,978 cases.
The World Health Organization said Monday that roughly one in 10 people may have been infected with the novel coronavirus by now-meaning most of the world's population is still vulnerable.
"Our current best estimates tell us about 10 per cent of the global population may have been infected by this virus," WHO top emergency expert Dr. Michael Ryan told the executive board, as the Guardian reported.
"It varies depending on country, it varies from urban to rural, it varies depending on groups. But what it does mean is that the vast majority of the world remains at risk. We are now heading into a difficult period. The disease continues to spread," he said.
In Paris, bars and cafés will be closed for two weeks under new measures being imposed to stop the spread of the virus, according to local media reports.
Paris has been hit by rising cases, increasing hospitalisations and deaths months after it lifted a nationwide lockdown.
"These are braking measures because the epidemic is moving too fast," Paris police chief Didier Lallement told journalists. "From tomorrow, all bars will be closed." France counted nearly 17,000 new cases on Saturday alone, the highest number since it started widespread testing.
Russia reported 10,499 new infections on Sunday, the highest number of new cases since May 15 at the peak of the crisis when lockdowns were still in effect, the Guardian reported.
Moscow is now considering another strict lockdown to curb the spread, according to the newspaper Vedomosti. Russia has 1.2 million cases, fourth highest in the world, and 21,375 fatalities.
