The cumulative incidence (IA) of Coronavirus today descends, after several days of light upload. This Tuesday is already at 41.9 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, after a drop of almost a point in the last 24 hours.

This means that Spain is found, and remains at low risk. It also decreases slightly (0.76 points) the indicator within seven days, key to detect rapid changes of trend (19.93).

Likewise, according to this last figure, since it is less than 25, Spain would already be considered as a low risk country in terms of Covid-19. The number of contagions has also decreased in the last few hours: they are 1,889 new, more than 2,600 less than those that were reported on Monday.

Mortality follows the same trend and continues descending, since healing has notified 21 new deaths, 35 less than Monday, and 21 less than a week ago. Thus, according to the ministry, we have already occurred 87,052 deaths in Spain since the pandemic began.

By communities, the most affected territories are Catalonia, with an AI of 62.35; Basque Country (61,52) and Aragon (53,93). On the contrary, the most unknowns are again Galicia (14,21), Ceuta (17,81), Asturias (20,42) and La Rioja (27,82).

By ages, the most affected group is, by far, the less than 11 years, unique without vaccination. However, his IA (53,39) has also dropped almost a point on the last day. The following population groups in incidence are between 40 and 49 years (46,94) and between 30 and 39 years (45,12).

From hospitals today, good news arrives equally. The global occupation falls to 1.51%, with three admitted less than Monday; And in ICU itself happens, the percentage falls down a bit, placing itself at 4.76% (433 Covid patients are admitted in a serious state, 11 less than Monday).

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. The same happens if the occupation in UCI is observed, which, as less than 5, would indicate that Spain is also a territory in a new normality. Likewise, the positivity meter of the tests that are carried out (2.25%), also aimed at Spain has already entered the new normality, since it is less than four.

Communities with greater pressure by Coronavirus in the ICU remain Rioja (9.43%), Madrid (8.06%), Catalonia (7.91%) and Basque Country (6.82%). On the opposite side, the most unknown are Ceuta and Melilla, without entering UCI, Galicia (0.56%), Extremadura (1.06%) and Asturias (2.51%).

As always, we 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 905.4; United Kingdom (845.9,) and Turkey (507,3). The countries with the lowest data are Spain (41,9), Italy (59.4) and Poland (77.9).
