Record number of infections, number of corona patients in hospital is falling

In the past week, RIVM registered 226,136 positive tests, which is an average of 32,305 infections per day. That too is a record. The average is rising for the nineteenth day in a row. Last week, the average was still 25,358 infections per day.


Last day, RIVM registered seven people who died as a result of their corona infection. 76 deaths have been reported in the past week. The fact that the death of these corona patients has now been reported does not mean that these people have died in the past day. This is sometimes only registered after a while.

1217 corona patients admitted

Despite the rising infection rates, the number of admitted corona patients is falling. A total of 1,217 corona patients are currently in hospital. This is two less than yesterday. This is apparent from the most recent figures from the National Coordination Center for Patients Spreading (LCPS).

There are now 906 corona patients in the nursing wards. That is 8 more than a day earlier. 90 new corona patients were admitted to the nursing wards. In the intensive care units, the occupation decreased by 10 to 311 corona patients. There were 15 new recordings.
