Regional Health Agency
According to the Regional Health Agency: "The drop in the number of new confirmed cases has now been clearly underway for the past 10 days throughout the country except at Saint-Laurent du Maroni (where it seems to be taking place) and on the river Maroni, where the situation must be followed carefully. ”
With a delay of a few days, the number of new hospital and resuscitation admissions also began to decrease, but more slowly. The pressure on the hospital system is slowly starting to ease.

The case fatality rate is 0.49% according to epidemiological data presented to APMnews by Pr Mathieu Nacher, director of the Antilles-Guyana clinical investigation center at the Cayenne hospital center. It is 7.73% in Ecuador, 5.66% in Guyana or 3.84% in the Brazilian state of Amazonas.
