Number of corona patients in hospital falls below 500

For the first time since June 17, hospitals are treating fewer than 500 people who have the corona virus. In the past day, a total of 22 beds became available, bringing the total number of admitted patients to 489.

The figures from the National Coordination Center for Patients Spreading (LCPS) do not distinguish between people who have been admitted because of their corona complaints and people who have other complaints and who happen to be carrying the virus.

In the past day, 46 people with corona were newly admitted to hospitals. That is the lowest number of withdrawals since June 14.
