The incidence increases slightly but remains at 40 points

The cumulative incidence (IA) of the coronavirus today does not descend, even increases a bit for the first time since the end of July, when the peak of the fifth wave was reached. This Friday is at 40,85 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, after a rise of more than three tenths in the last 24 hours.

However, Spain continues to find at low risk. For its part, the number of contagions has not diminished this time either: they are 2,248 new cases, 316 more than those that were reported yesterday.

The same happens today with mortality, which has increased slightly. Health has notified this Friday, 57 new deaths, 20 less than seven days ago, but nine more than yesterday.

Thus, according to the ministry, 86,900 died by Covid have already been exceeded in Spain since the pandemic (86,974) began. By communities, the most affected territories are Catalonia, with an AI of 65.96; Cantabria (56.27), Basque Country (54,31) and Balearic Islands (53,43).

On the contrary, the most unknown are Galicia (14,92), Asturias (17,86), La Rioja (27.82) and Andalusia (28.58). By ages, the group now most affected is less than 11 years, unique without vaccining. However, your IA (54,85) has also dropped more than one point on the last day.

The following population groups in incidence are between 40 and 49 years (45.52) and that of 30 and 39 (43.62). From hospitals, good news arrives.

The global occupation continues to fall to 1.5%, with an admitting less than the day before. And in UCI the percentage also decreases, standing at 4.86% (443 Covid patients are added in a serious state, 11 less than Thursday).

According to the global occupation of beds in hospitals, being less than two, Spain would already be a country in the so-called new normality. Likewise, if the occupation in UCI is observed, being less than five, this would also indicate that Spain is a country that is in the so-called new normality.

Communities with greater pressure by Coronavirus at the ICU remain Madrid (9.21%), Catalonia (7.7%), La Rioja (7.55%) and Basque Country (6.96%). On the opposite side, the most unknown are Ceuta and Melilla, without admitted to UCI, Galicia (0.4%), Extremadura (1.06%), Asturias (2.07%) and Murcia (2.59%).

As always, remember that these data only reflect the occupation of beds for Covid patients. To calculate the actual occupation, those patients who are entered by other pathologies and surgeries would be added.

The European countries most affected by the virus are Romania, with an incidence of 847.8; United Kingdom (765.8) and Turkey (506,4). The countries with the lowest data are Spain (40,85), Italy (62) and Poland (63.2).
