WARSAW (Reuters) - Poland on Thursday reported a record number of coronavirus infections for the fifth time since last week, the health ministry said, as it announced renewed local restrictions to counter the spike in cases.

The new record of 726 new cases, the first time daily cases have topped 700, came as the health ministry said restrictions would return in 19 counties worst affected by the pandemic.
