MILAN, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Italy reported 47 coronavirus-related deaths on Sunday, against 90 the day before, the health ministry said, while the daily tally of new infections rose slightly to 12,932 from 12,877.

Patients in hospital with COVID-19 - not including those in intensive care - stood at 4,964 on Sunday, up from 4,826 a day earlier.
