The Health Ministry has registered 2,311 more novel coronavirus infections and 81 deaths for the past 24 hours.
The country's overall tally now stands at 386,820, the ministry said.
Some 1,714 more patients recovered over the past day, raising the tally to 332,379, while the death toll rose to 10,639.
As Minister Fahrettin Koca admitted on September 30, the ministry excludes asymptomatic cases from its daily count and announces the number of "patients," or cases with symptoms.
Until July 29, 2020, the expression of "number of daily cases" was used on the Health Ministry's daily Covid-19 table. It has then been understood that after this day, it has been changed into "number of daily patients."
A total of 146,028 more Covid-19 tests were conducted across the country, bringing the total to over 14.7 million.
The figures showed that the number of patients in critical condition currently stands at 2,564, increasing by 100 from the previous day.
Across the world, Covid-19 has claimed more than 1.22 million lives in 190 countries and regions since last December.
The US, India, and Brazil are currently the worst-hit countries.
Over 48.26 million cases have been reported worldwide, with recoveries exceeding 32 million, according to figures compiled by the US' Johns Hopkins University.
