There is the 300th victim in Sicily with Coronavirus: it is a ninety-year-old man from Sciacca who died at home. On the other hand, 108 new infections have been registered on the island in the last 24 compared to the 7,008 swabs processed: the percentage of positives is therefore 1.54%, slightly lower than in recent days. The other data that draws attention is that with the 63 cases today (5 are from the Biagio Conte Mission) the province of Palermo exceeds that of Catania (+13) in the total count of infections since the start of the pandemic : 1,448 against 1,414.

The number of hospitalizations also continues to increase (224), which compared to yesterday registered a worrying +21. Fortunately, the number of patients in intensive care remains low, 15 (+1). The number of recently recovered patients is also high, which is 65. So the calculation of current positives does not rise much compared to yesterday: at this time, according to the newsletter of the Ministry of Health in Sicily there are 2,390 people with Covid, from these 2,151 are in home isolation without symptoms or with mild symptoms.
