But demand for serious hospital treatment remains high.
The number of coronavirus patients who had to be hooked up to mechanical ventilation was at its highest in mid and late January, peaking at 49.
By mid-February it had dropped to roughly half of that figure, but then it stopped decreasing.
On February 16, there were 24 COVID-19 patients being ventilated.
A week later, despite overall hospital cases falling, the number of patients on ventilation rose to 25.
The number of patients in intensive care – also known as adult critical care – also peaked in late January, hitting 64 on the last day of the month.
By February 14, it was down to 41. But by February 21, it was up again to 46.
