The temporary disability losses caused by the

coronavirus

, which include both infections and isolation cases, tripled in December to reach 240,011, coinciding with the expansion of the new omicron variant.

According to the data provided this Tuesday by the Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration, the number of cancellations processed until December 23

is 216% higher

than the 75,861 registered during the month of November.

The provisional figures show the impact of the omicron variant in the sixth wave and, while waiting to confirm this trend, December is the month with the

most sick leave processed since last July

, when 402,203 were recorded.

In the history of the pandemic,

January 2021 continues to be the month with the lowest

temporary disability leave caused by the coronavirus, with 636,260, followed by October 2020 (482,042) and November 2020 (464,996).

However, and despite the fact that in December there is an increase in casualties similar to that which occurred during other phases of the pandemic, the Ministry has explained that compared to other waves, the number of processes

is currently lower

.

In addition, the data also show a

gradual

decrease

in the average duration of sick leave, due to the fact that those infected have less serious medical conditions thanks to vaccination.

The average duration in December

is 9.96 days

, the month with the lowest figure since the pandemic broke out, despite the fact that the data for this last month are conditioned by the non-completion of many of the processes.

It should be remembered that when the pandemic began, in March 2020, the duration of temporary disability

leave reached 39.91 days

.
