Of the 7,147 new cases, 4,676 are from the province of Buenos Aires 4,676, 1,467 from the city of Buenos Aires, 137 from C?rdoba, 135 from Jujuy, 121 from R?o Negro, 101 Santa Fe, 98 from Mendoza, 81 from Neuqu?n, 70 from Chaco, 50 from Santa Cruz, 43 from Tierra del Fuego, 42 from Entre R?os, 34 from Salta, 28 from Tucum?n, 27 from La Rioja, 18 from Santiago del Estero, 9 from Chubut, 6 from La Pampa, 5 from Corrientes , 2 from San Luis and 1 from San Juan.
Catamarca and Formosa reclassified their cases to other jurisdictions according to place of residence.
Yesterday 16,532 new samples were made and since the start of the outbreak 777,278 diagnostic tests were carried out for this disease, which is equivalent to 17,129.4 samples per million inhabitants.
The number of cases discarded until yesterday is 442,881 (by laboratory and by clinical / epidemiological criteria).
In relation to yesterday's cases, the Secretary for Access to Health, Carla Vizzotti, explained that 84% correspond to the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (AMBA) and that several jurisdictions are "contributing an important number" of positives. "
The same situation is registered in the degree of occupation of intensive care beds: 1,207 people carry the disease in these places throughout the country, of which 81% do so in health centers in the city and province of Buenos Aires. That percentage of the AMBA, in decline in recent weeks, registers a proportion and, as such, is affected by what happens in other regions that have shown increases.
Mendoza and R?o Negro concentrate -each one- 42 critically ill patients for COVID-19, which translates into a percentage of bed occupancy of 3.5% provided respectively, while Jujuy, with 30 patients, reaches 2.5 %.
The occupation of intensive care beds, beyond the ailment that explains the hospitalization of the patient, nationwide averages 56.6%, while in the AMBA it reaches 66.4%.
The positivity index, which measures the number of cases found on tests carried out, yesterday stood at 47.6% country average, 45% in the City and 52.5% in the province of Buenos Aires. Meanwhile, Mendoza shows a positive rate per test performed of 41.7%, Salta 43%, Jujuy 47.4%, and Santa Cruz 72%.
Vizzotti noted that, given the evidence of greater cases in different jurisdictions that previously registered a few, "work is underway" with the local health ministries. In this sense, he reported that the Minister of Health, Gin?s Gonz?lez Garc?a, met yesterday with the health officials of the provinces to explain the scope of the DNU that restricts social gatherings in private homes at the federal level, the main cause of the spread of the virus. .
