The Ministry of Health has reviewed this Thursday the levels of health alert based on the Public Health report and has agreed that all the islands will continue in the same. This means that Gran Canaria, Tenerife, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro will remain at alert level 3; and Fuerteventura and Lanzarote (where La Graciosa is epidemiologically included) at level 2.
"The healthcare indicators in the Canary Islands show a favorable evolution and the daily average of conventional hospital beds occupied decreases by 18.3% compared to the previous week and with an average occupancy of 5%, it remains at medium risk", they point out from the Ministry.
However, infections have increased in the last week. In the Autonomous Community as a whole, between March 8 and 14, 9,162 new cases of Covid-19 were reported, which represents an increase of 3.3% in the daily average of new cases in relation to the previous week.
All the islands are at a very high risk level in the accumulated incidence at 7 days, except for Fuerteventura, which is at medium risk, and Lanzarote, which is at high risk. The island that rises the most in this indicator is Tenerife, followed by La Gomera.
In the IA at 14 days it decreases by 3.7%, although the risk level is still very high in the Archipelago as a whole.
