Following the announcement of level changes for Tenerife, Lanzarote, and La Palma, the Ministry of Health has updated the epidemiological data for the last 24 hours which shows 5,368 new cases and 11 more Covid related deaths in the islands, seven of them in Tenerife and four in Gran Canaria.
The Minister of Health for Spain, Carolina Darias, has informed of new data today showing that “unvaccinated people aged between 60 and 79 years old, have a 20% more chance of dying as a result of Covid than people who are fully vaccinated," which is why “the vaccine makes the difference between those who have been vaccinated and those who have not”.
Darias has insisted on the ‘turning point’ that being vaccinated means, because results from new studies show there is sixteen times more chance of entering hospital than unvaccinated people, and thirty times more chance of entering ICU than people who are vaccinated, in this age group.
This is why she has stressed today “that vaccination continues to be the most powerful weapon to fight this pandemic", hence why she has emphasized the importance of getting vaccinated.
