ARCHIVED - 234 new covid cases in Murcia due to low number of PCR tests on Sunday
Jumilla and Lorca will remain in phase 1 confinement for a further week
“Only” 234 new cases of covid have been detected in the Region of Murcia within the last 24 hours, the principal reason being that the numbre of PCR tests was lower on Sunday than during the preceding week, when considerably higher levels of tests were undertaken, pushing the cases detected upwards.
The regional Minister for Health reported that 2,247 PCR tests had been undertaken, yielding 234 new cases, giving a 10.4% positivity rate.
During the last few days the positivity levels have been consistently over 15%, and the number of cases considerably higher.
These latest results change the total number of active cases to 7,665 and the total cases detected to date to 17,161.This actually reduces the number of active cases by 15, as 248 of the “active cases” have been checked and are now classified as “recovered” from the virus, so on Sunday were added to the “cured” list. This “cured” total is now 7,597.
Of the new positives, 79 relate to in the municipality of Murcia, 19 in Cartagena, 15 in Alcantarilla, 15 in Jumilla, 15 in Lorca, 11 in Mula, 8 in Alhama, 8 in Yecla, 7 in Molina de Segura, 6 in Santomera and 5 in Mazarrón.
7,348 positive cases are now in home isolation, with 317 hospitalised, 59 in intensive care.
Fatalities
There has been one further fatality; a 65 year old male from Santomera.
The regional health ministry has decided to prolong the “flexibilised phase 1 confinement” of Lorca for a further week.
