The number of Covid-19 hospital admissions across the country has drastically dropped in the past month, according to data from the Ministry of Health.
Yesterday, the ministry reported 384 patients were admitted in hospitals across the country.
Unlike in the past where the number of patients in need of specialised care was high, there were 39 patients in intensive care units (ICUs).
“. 15 of whom are on ventilatory support and 20 on supplementary oxygen. Four patients are under observation,” the ministry said in a statement yesterday.
