ARCHIVED - Rise in number of new Covid cases across Spain continues on Thursday
143 new cases in the last 24 hours
On Tuesday 141 new cases doubled the total from Monday and the Wednesday totals have risen by a further 143 new cases.
This week the number of new Covid cases in Spain has suddenly started to resume an upward trend and the Wednesday figures collated at 23:59 on Wednesday evening and presented on Thursday by the national Ministry of Health followed the upward trend of the last few days.
On Monday 40 new cases were reported, which almost doubled on Tuesday to 76, then rose to 141 on Wednesday.
This brings the total infected since the start of the pandemic to 245,268.
The 143 new cases are located in Andalucía (6), Aragón (5), Balearic Islands (2), Canary Islands (14), Cantabria (3), Castilla-La Mancha (5), Castilla y León (2), Cataluña (16 ), Valencian Community (4), Extremadura (7), Galicia (2), Madrid (69), Navarra (5) and the Basque Country (3). Murcia has also reported 4 cases, although these do not appear in the figures for some reason.
The Ministry of Health also reports 52 deaths from COVID-19 during the last week, and the total figure remains at 27,136, a figure that has been frozen for several weeks pending the update of the date of death by the health authorities of the autonomous communities, a situation which has provoked fierce criticism as the country prepares to leave the state of emergency.
The 52 deaths are distributed as follows Andalusia (1), Aragon (1), Asturias (1), Castilla-La Mancha (2), Castilla y León (13), Catalonia (3), Valencian Community (3), Madrid (25) and the Basque Country (3) . For full detail click here
Fernando Simón, director of the Center for the Coordination of Health Emergencies, hinted that tomorrow the updated number of deaths from Covid-19 in Spain would finally be published, which he estimated at "around 28,000."
He also said with reference to the forthcoming summer holidays : "We don't have to live in distress. Things are going well but we can stay calm if we follow transmission control measures so that the residual risk does not become an epidemic wave".
