Mortality: The Government estimates 20,268 deaths from Covid-19 in residences during the first wave
Health data today register
22,516 new infections
since Thursday and
347 more deaths
.
For the second day in a row, 300 deaths have been exceeded, but today's data, Friday, is below the 368 deaths from yesterday.
Although the number of cases added to the total has rebounded compared to Thursday, when
21,908
were added
, the accumulated incidence of the virus for the whole of Spain has fallen slightly again, for the second day in a row, to stand at
525.74
.
The data reflects, however, a
new record in the number of deaths during the last seven days
, amounting to
1,088
.
This parameter has been two days in a row above a thousand and beating successive records for this second wave of the virus.
On Thursday, the deaths registered in the previous seven were
1,002
and on Wednesday,
888
.
By communities, Friday's report reflects that Andalusia (186), Castilla y León (156), Aragón (123), Asturias (90), Galicia (70), Catalonia (65), Madrid (61), Valencian Community (59 ) and Murcia (56) have been the regions where more lives have been lost in the last week.
In Friday's data, the count of cases since the start of the pandemic amounts to
1,328,832
in Spain.
The deceased are already
38,833
in total.
Hospital pressure data have experienced a slight decrease since yesterday, which has not been noticed in ICUs.
The number of patients admitted to Spain for Covid-19 is
20,209
- on Thursday there were 20,281 - and the percentage of occupancy has dropped less than one tenth, to
16.28%
.
In ICUs, however, Covid occupancy has increased, also slightly, to the
current
29.47%
, with
2,833
patients receiving intensive care.
The communities with the
most pressure in intensive care units
are Aragón (50.44%), Castilla y León (42.66%), Catalonia (42.47%), Navarra (40.00%), Asturias (39.78 %) and Madrid (37.05%), in addition to Ceuta (41.18%) and Melilla (42.86%).
Several of them, however, have experienced a slight relief compared to previous days and weeks, which has not prevented the national average from continuing to rise.
Diagnoses and outbreaks
Of the more than 20,000 new cases registered in the last report, they correspond to tests carried out on the last day,
9,150
, a figure lower than that of Thursday (9,606).
Of these new diagnoses,
Madrid is the one that contributes the most (2,075)
, followed by Catalonia (1,238), the Basque Country (1,214) and Aragon (1,030).
No other has exceeded a thousand, although it must be borne in mind that this and other data are
always subject to future variations
due to the already common delays in notification.
The Health report on Friday also offers a table with the distribution of outbreaks detected by activities.
In the last week,
211 outbreaks have been identified in educational centers
(13.83%), which are already the second area that contributes the most to the total, behind the family one, where 248 outbreaks have been found in this same time (16, 25%).
