The Latest: Spain key infection rate significantly drops.
9 hrs ago.
MADRID -- Spanish authorities say the key 14-day infection rate of
coronavirus cases per 100,000 people has dropped below 50 for the first
time since July 2020.
Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez says in a tweet its a crucial milestone
in the fight against the pandemic. The Health Ministry on Thursday
reported 48 officially recorded cases per 100,000 inhabitants over two
weeks.
Officials say a large part is due to the national vaccination rollout,
which has fully inoculated 77% of Spaniards. Pressure on hospitals has
fallen considerably to 2,000 people admitted to hospitals and 551 in
ICUs.
The Health Ministry reported 1,807 new cases from the previous day,
taking the total to 4.9 million. There were 23 reported deaths, bringing
the confirmed total to 86,701.
