2051 new corona cases, slightly fewer patients in hospitals

Last 24 hours, 2051 new positive corona tests were registered at the RIVM. That is 159 fewer compared to last Saturday. The average level over the past seven days has also fallen further.

In the past seven days, 14,542 new corona cases arrived at the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, considerably less compared to the previous weeks. On average, this equates to 2,077 new cases per day, the lowest number since July 7.

The number of deaths rose by four in the past 24 hours. That does not mean that all those people have died in the past 24 hours, because it takes a while before the death of a corona patient is registered.

Slightly fewer corona patients in hospitals

The number of people with a corona infection in Dutch hospitals has decreased somewhat in the past 24 hours. On Saturday, a total of 551 patients will be hospitalized with Covid-19, the disease caused by the corona virus. That is 15 less than Friday, can be read in the most recent figures from the National Coordination Center for Patients Distribution (LCPS). On Friday there were 566 corona patients in hospitals

There are now 359 corona patients in the nursing wards of hospitals, 13 fewer than Friday. There are 192 seriously ill corona patients on the ICs, 2 less than a day earlier.

Last 24 hours, 6 new corona patients were brought in on the ICs. 50 people were admitted to the nursing wards. The LCPS previously indicated that the influx of corona patients is stable and that this is likely to remain so in the coming period, with a possible small decrease.
