As the number of confirmed cases in the study as per age group has now exceeded 150,000 , I felt it was time to look at the graphs and make some observations on how the Covid19 is affecting the different age groups in Spain. Most of the confirmed cases are over 40, with the 50-59-year-old group having the highest incidence. However, it is the over 60’s who have the highest incidence of hospitalisation and the biggest number of intensive care patients coming from the 60-69 age group followed closely by the 70-79 age group. It is clear that over 80’s are not making it to hospital and have the highest number of deaths with mortality 24-25%. Over 70’s have registered 86.5% of all deaths so far in Spain. This is not to say younger people are safe because they can also get severe cases but our over 70’s are the most vulnerable and that’s why we have to stay at home to save them.

There has been a total of 4,635 new cases declared today and the total confirmed cases is now at 213,024. The number of deaths has now reached 22,157. The number of people who have recovered is 89,250.

Meanwhile in Andalusia there are 12,237 confirmed cases of which 5,616 have needed hospitalisation and 702 have needed intensive care. As of 21.00 yesterday there are 1,019 patients confirmed with Covid-19 in hospital and 235 of those are in intensive care. There have been 1,079 deaths (Malaga 237, Jaen 147, Granada 219, Cordoba 83, Cadiz 88, Seville 226, Almeria 44, Huelva 35). In Seville there are 2,463 cases and 1,065 of those required hospitalization with 140 in intensive care. There have been 226 deaths while 548 have recovered.

In Andalusia there have been a total of 1,079 deaths so far. A total 3,847 patients have recovered.

In Huelva there are 396 cases, this being an increase of 5 new cases today, 214 have been hospitalized with 29 in intensive care. No new deaths were reported today so the total stays at 35. The good news is 136 have now recovered from the virus.
