The Ministry of Health of the Government of the Canary Islands provisionally notifies this Saturday of 152 new cases of COVID-19 coronavirus registered in the last 24 hours. Therefore, the total number of accumulated cases in the Canary Islands is 21,902. In the last 24 hours, we must regret the death of an 83-year-old woman belonging to a family outbreak, who remained admitted to Tenerife and who suffered from previous comorbidities.
These data are provisional because, as indicated by the Coordinating Center for Alerts and Emergencies, from this moment on, the Autonomous Communities will not receive epidemiological information on weekends and holidays, so there will be no communication of complete data nor will the Grafcan website be updated on those days as usual. Thus, the daily update will be active again on business days starting this Wednesday, December 9.
Therefore, the data contained in the press releases that will continue to be sent daily as until now may vary once they are reviewed epidemiologically and consolidated by the General Directorate of Public Health according to the established protocols, so in the following days discrepancies may arise in the updating of the data contained in the Grafcan website.
By islands, Gran Canaria adds 7 cases, so its accumulated cases are at 9,565; Tenerife has 9,568 accumulated cases, since it adds 133 new positives, while Lanzarote increases its cases by 5, placing its accumulated cases at 1,434. For its part, Fuerteventura reaches 931 accumulated cases, adding 6 new positives in the last hours. La Palma registers 1 new case, so its accumulated cases amount to 219. Finally, La Gomera and El Hierro, without new cases registered yesterday, maintain their accumulated cases at 116 and 69, respectively.
