The Ministry of Health reminds that these data published on the Grafcan portal are provisional and are pending validation by the Public Health teams. In this way, the dynamics of the Coordinating Center for Alerts and Emergencies is followed, which does not receive epidemiological information from the Autonomous Communities on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
Therefore, the data may vary once they are epidemiologically reviewed and consolidated by the General Directorate of Public Health according to the established protocols, so in the coming days discrepancies may arise in the updating of the data contained in the Grafcan website.
