In recent days, we have likely seen a low number of new infections in the official data due to the low number of tests observed during the Christmas period, but the virus has not disappeared and this is already reflected in the official case figures: the number of new (detected) cases has returned to previous levels.

The number of deaths in the last 24 hours was 108, which is a decrease compared to the previous days, the 7-day moving average indicates a downward trend.

The good news is that although the number of hospital admissions increased a few days ago, it increased by almost 200 on Monday, but now it has dropped significantly in one day: the number of people needing hospital care has dropped by almost 300 in a day. Meanwhile, the number of people needing ventilation has also dropped by 23. All of this gives hope that the number of deaths may also be reduced in the coming weeks. We also note that the number of hospital admissions has drastically decreased relative to the number of deaths, which is important because many of the deceased are likely to lose their lives in hospital care (i.e., death alone can significantly reduce the number of hospital admissions, but admit it, it wouldn’t be good news).

More details coming soon.
