A week after entering low risk, the coreavirus figures in Spain further improve. The cumulative incidence indicator (IA) is placed on Thursday in 40.52 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, after a decrease of almost a point on the last day. The same trend can be observed in the AI to seven days, key to detect rapid changes in trend, which also decreases almost a point compared to yesterday (17.46). This last figure, since it is less than 25, also corroborates that Spain is already a country with low risk as to the Covid-19.

On the other hand, the positivity meter that is carried out (2.13%), aims to Spain has already entered the new normality, since it is less than four. Likewise, the number of new cases has been descended, 1,932, when 2,758 were notified yesterday. Mortality, however, today does not follow the same trend down as cumulative incidence and cases, since 48 deceased, six more than yesterday have been registered. The total number of deaths from the beginning of the pandemic is 86,917.

By ages, the most affected group remains the only one without vaccination, the less than 11 years, with an AI of 55.99 (almost four points below on Wednesday). The group of between 40 and 49 years (45,15) and that of between 30 and 39 (42.84), although the remaining population is in a very similar situation.

The regions most affected by the Coronavirus remain Catalonia, with an AI of 63.83; Cantabria (60,39) and Melilla (55,12). Galicia (15,73), Asturias (16.1), La Rioja (28,13) and Andalusia (28.2) are those that maintain a lower incidence.

The UCI Madrid are still quite committed, with 9.63% occupation. Below are those of Catalonia (7.94%), La Rioja (7.55%) and Basque Country (7.07%). On the contrary, Ceuta and Melilla, without Covid patients in a serious state, Extremadura (0.53%), Galicia (0.54%) and Murcia (2.05%) are the autonomies that maintain a lower occupation in ICU. With these data, Spain places its UCI in the new normality, since the total percentage of occupation by Covid-19 patients is less than five, specifically 4.98%.

We must remember that these percentages only contemplate patients admitted by Coronavirus. To calculate the actual occupation, the ones found there for other pathologies and surgeries must be added.

Romania continues an incidence leader (878.1), followed by the United Kingdom (753,7) and Turkey (504.1). The most unknown countries of the continent are, one more day, Spain (40.52), Poland (58.5) and Italy (63.8).
