It seems a long time ago now that we were rejoicing for Huelva being in single digit figures for hospitalizations and nobody in intensive care and nothing would give me more joy to be reporting those type of figures, sadly this COVID-19 virus likes mobility and colder weather.

Today in Huelva 214 new cases were reported and eight new hospitalizations and one more death. There is some good news, there were no new patients for intensive care and 102 have been declared cured.

Ayamonte also had an increase in cases and reported 10 new cases today. Autumn has not been good to Ayamonte when we speak of Covid. There have be a total of 211 confirmed cases in Ayamonte since this pandemic began and 82 alone in the last fortnight. You have to remember that the goal set out by the government is for 25 cases per 100,000 in a 7-day period. Ayamonte has a population almost 21,000 and we have had 45 cases in the last 7 days. So by my maths we are at 214 cases per 100,000. Ayamonte has had one death to Covid and I really hope this number stays this way for the foreseeable future.

Huelva has 16 patients in intensive care. There are currently 3,162 patients in Andalusian hospitals with Covid-19 of which 525 are in intensive care.
