Data released this Wednesday, in the daily epidemiological bulletin of the Directorate-General for Health (DGS), reveal that there are 223 Portuguese municipalities with at least three confirmed cases of Covid-19.
According to the same document, in the last 24 hours there were 285 new cases. However, the data referring to the counties, account for 323 new infected. THE Renaissance, the General Directorate of Health states that “there are always correct data in municipalities, either due to delay in notification or due to the relocation of the user in the area of residence”.
Lisbon (+48), Amadora (+39), Sintra (+33), Loures (+31), Vila Franca de Xira (+22) Oeiras (+16), Odivelas (+14) and Seixal (+13) are municipalities with the greatest increase in the number of infected in the last 24 hours, according to the DGS list.
According to the same bulletin, 53 municipalities register at least one more confirmed case of Covid-19 compared to the previous day and seven counties add up to more than one thousand infected – Lisbon, Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto, Matosinhos, Braga, Sintra and Gondomar.

Lisbon occupies the top of the table with a total of 2,182 infected with the new coronavirus, followed by Vila Nova de Gaia (1,552), Porto (1,347) and Matosinhos (1,269). Of the 223 municipalities with at least three confirmed cases of Covid-19, 170 did not register an increase in the number of infected people compared to the previous day.
In the region of Lisbon and the Tagus Valley (LVT), 277 new cases were reported Covid-19 in the last 24 hours (97% of all new cases), thus overcoming the barrier of 10,000 infected, since the outbreak began.
Knowing that the accounting will not be relative to the total number of cases – nor will it simultaneously monitor the data reported by the municipalities – DGS has chosen to provide only data from SINAVE, the national epidemiological surveillance system.
