The peak incidence of coronavirus two weeks in Ibiza was reached on 30 July , with 2,014.8 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, according to data from the Ministry of Health. In Formentera, the peak corresponds to August 1 (1,184.4 cases). Since then, the incidence of the virus has been falling steadily in the Pitiusas.

In the case of Ibiza, the cumulative incidence (AI) to 14 days had fallen to this Monday -last day with records- 37%, while in Formentera has decreased by 34.8% since the day it reached the maximum value. At the moment, it is expected that the rate of infection continues to decline. In fact, the 7-day AI gives us a clue in this regard.

Finally, have fallen below this symbolic barrier, and yesterday were 2,904 active cases registered in the Pitiusas, 3.9% less than the 3,022 that were recorded the day before yesterday, thanks to more medical discharges were reported, 201, that new positive, 83.
