BEIJING -- A Chinese government spokesman says the death toll from the
earthquake that struck two weeks ago has risen to 66,080.

The toll given by Cabinet spokesman Guo Weimin on Monday was up about
3,500 from a day earlier.

Premier Wen Jiabao has already said he expects the death toll to
eventually surpass 80,000 from the May 12 earthquake.
