Covid update: Hospital occupancy drops almost 5% in the last 24 hours

The latest data from the Ministry of Health shows that 1,446 new cases of coronavirus have been reported in the Canary Islands today, with 105,038 active cases, of which 77 are admitted to ICU and 556 are hospitalized, which represents a drop of almost 5% since yesterday.

In the last 24 hours, nine people aged between 67 and 95 years old have died from Covid, five in Gran Canaria, three in Tenerife, and one in Lanzarote. All had previous pathologies and were already hospitalized.

Due to the downward trend in the data, several islands are expecting, or hoping for a drop in alert level this Thursday, especially as hospital pressure is starting to ease and admissions are slowing down. It is very possible that Tenerife and Lanzarote could see level changes this week.
