Lanzarote has registered five new positive cases of Covid in the last 24 hours, according to the Ministry of Health of the Government of the Canary Islands.
The number of accumulated cases on the island amounts to 1,434.
Regarding the number of discharges and hospitalizations, the Ministry of Health has not reported in its press release. In addition, in the statement, the Ministry of Health announces that "these data are provisional because, as indicated by the Coordinating Center for Alerts and Emergencies, from this moment on, epidemiological information will not be received from the Autonomous Communities 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 from this Wednesday, December 9th."
However, the Ministry of Health explains that "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 update of the data contained in the Grafcan website."
