The pandemic in Spain has entered a new phase(there is already a possible date for a removal of the mask indoors), after the removal of mandatory quarantine for mild cases without symptoms, the fact that there are no ‘close contacts’ as such for testing or quarantining, and hardly any casualties for those without symptoms and those with symptoms is up to your doctor.
After a prolonged drop in the sixth wave, driven by the greater contagion capacity of the Omicron variant, now the incidence has risen again. The latest report from the Ministry of Health, this Friday, reflects a 25 point raise.

According to the report of the Ministry of Health, in the last week the age group with the greatest increases, of 24.4%, are those aged 80 or over, followed by the group of 70 to 79 years and 60 to 69 with increases of 9.8 and 9.5 percent, respectively.
In the last 14 days the highest cumulative incidence of covid cases corresponds to people aged 15 to 24, with an incidence of 271.2 cases per 100,000 inhabitantsfollowed by 25 to 44 years old with an incidence of 310.2 cases.
With this, the incidence reaches 461 cases per 100,000 inhabitants at 14 dayswhile the new registered infections reach 72,892, by the 54,147 of the previous report. And although since Monday all the indicators have presented a increase in transmission (incidence at 7 days increases from 209 to 227 cases)hospital admissions continue to decline (42 fewer patients in the ICU and 5.59% occupancy).
