The number of Covid-19 patients in French hospitals continues to decline slowly, including in intensive care units, according to data published today by Public Health France.
19,430 patients with Covid-19 are currently hospitalized (compared to 19,701 the day before), including 796 admitted in the last 24 hours.
This figure, which had exceeded 31,000 at the height of the third wave in mid-April, fell back below 20,000 on Saturday for the first time since October 27.
Critical care services (a name that includes resuscitation, intensive care and continuing care services) have 3,447 patients on Tuesday (against 3,496 the day before).
205 have been admitted since Monday in these services which take care of the most seriously ill patients.
The number of patients in critical care had remained around 6,000 between mid-April and early May, before falling sharply since.
199 people with Covid-19 have died in hospital in the past 24 hours (after 70 Sunday and 62 Monday).
