Of the 622 deaths in Kerala, 93 were reported in the last few days, while 330 were not confirmed until June 18 last year due to lack of adequate documentation and 199 were designated as Covid-19 deaths after receiving appeals based on the new guidelines of the Centre and Supreme Court directions, a state government release said.
