6,695 new infections and active cases rise to 78,029

The curve of this sixth wave in Galicia seems to be definitely bending, with the sixth consecutive day of decrease in infections compared to last week, and an unprecedented decrease in active cases. It is the first time that active cases have dropped since October 23 (except for January 13, when there were 24,697 discharges due to the change in Sergas criteria). The 14-day incidence rises again to a new high of 3,461, but the 7-day incidence falls for the sixth day to 1,620, so it is a matter of days before the incidence at 14 follows the same path. It is to be expected that infections will continue to decline over the next few days, although the numbers continue to be very large. According to data from the Xunta, 371,529 Galicians have already had COVID-19, almost 14% of the entire population.

The hospital situation improves again today, with 9 fewer patients. The number of those admitted to the ground floor from 507 to 502 (-5) and that of the ICU drops from 53 to 49 (-4), making the total drop from 560 to 551 (-9). The 551 hospitalized today are 12 more than the 539 last Saturday.

These are the most relevant data today:

• The number of 6,695 new cases drops by 1,920 compared to 8,615 last Saturday.
• Active cases rise to 78,029, a decrease of 663 infected.
• The number of hospitalized people drops from 560 to 551, 12 more than a week ago.
• The incidence at 14 days rises 116 points to 3,461 and the incidence at 7 days drops 71 points to 1,620 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

Today Saturday 1,920 diagnoses are registered less than the 8,615 last Saturday. The 6,695 new cases today include all kinds of tests, but it is not known how many have been by PCR, so the percentage of positives of the 6,628 carried out is not known.

On the Sergas data website today they do not say how many cases have been opened in the last 24 hours, but the difference between the total number of infected since the start of the pandemic today (371,578) and yesterday (364,883) is 6,695 people. In the same way, the new infections that we indicate by health area are calculated with the same procedure.

In the last 24 hours they have been registered in Galicia 6,695 new cases of SARS-CoV-2, 5 deaths and 7,353 discharges, which makes the cases of coronavirus drop by 663 people, going from 78,692 yesterday to 78,029 today.

The total number of hospitalized patients drops from 560 to 551. Last Saturday there were 539 hospitalized, 12 less than today. The total number of coronavirus cases recorded by Sergas since the start of the pandemic is 371,578.
