The average number of coronavirus infections continues to rise and rose to 490.7 per day between July 24 and July 30, the Sciensano Public Health Institute said on Monday in its dashboard data update . This represents an increase of 68% from the previous week.
The number of infections in Belgium now stands at 69,849, against 69,402 on Sunday.
In many municipalities, the number of Covid-19 cases therefore continues to climb. And in some of them, the famous “alarm threshold” (20 new contaminations per 100,000 inhabitants in one week) has even been reached or exceeded. Be careful therefore that this “alarm threshold” should be put into perspective in some municipalities, the smallest of them can indeed quickly exceed it with a single case.
Today, 187 municipalities have exceeded the “alarm threshold”, according to the latest consolidated data from Sciensano. Check in the map below if your municipality is part of it (the “Cumulative Incidence” will therefore be greater than or equal to 20).
Finally, here is the map and the table showing the number of cases reported in your town yesterday, since the start of phase 3 of deconfinement (June 8) and since the start of the epidemic.
