The island of Ibiza has almost halved its covid cases in just seven days, according to data from the Balearic Ministry of Health published in the covid viewer. On Monday, the indicator stood at 3,814.2 covid cases per hundred thousand inhabitants in two weeks. Yesterday, this figure was 2,348.7, almost 1,700 fewer affected people, a reduction of 41%.
Right now, Ibiza is the second Balearic island most affected by covid, after Menorca, if we compare covid cases over two weeks. At one week, however, Mallorca already surpasses it.
By municipalities, many are about to leave the top ten most affected. The municipality with the highest incidence is Sant Josep, with 2,495.3 infections, which is ninth in the rankings of the islands.
Fewer infections and fewer coronavirus patients in critical care units is the summary of the last 24 hours of the pandemic in the Pitiusas, according to the data published yesterday at noon by the Balearic Ministry of Health. In the last day, private laboratories, the Microbiology laboratory of the Can Misses Hospital and pharmacies detected 89 positives, three of them in Formentera. This is the lowest figure, without being the results of tests performed on a holiday, since before the Christmas holidays, according to the historical data of the pandemic.
The number of hospitalized patients remains exactly the same as on Saturday, at 89, although not the proportion, since those in the ward are increasing and those in critical care units are decreasing. In ICU there are seven covid patients from the Pitiusas, two less than the day before and the lowest figure of the last two weeks.
In their homes, mild or those without symptoms, remain at 1,477: 1,402 in Ibiza and 75 in Formentera.
