Decades of decency, according to the agency, will be taken care of as soon as possible, since the day of the one of the ten days in which three deaths are confirmed by COVID-19 for this information.

“The additional number of deaths should not be interpreted as being haunted in the last 24 hours. In the same way, it is important to note that the total number of deaths can vary in the medium in which the registration and coding processes of the causes of death occur, which can take various days, ”said Salud in his statement.

The dependency indicates, in addition, that the total number of deaths is estimated at 1,771 and is recorded in 1,483 confirmed failures by COVID-19 in 288 as probable.

– Female from 87 years of the Fajardo region

– Man of 87 years of the Fajardo region

The population of major adults predominates as the population sector that is most prevalent in Puerto Rico as a consequence of COVID-19, according to Health statistics. Although the process of vacancy of senior citizens has begun some weeks ago, there were tens of thousands of citizens in the third year who did not receive a turn to receive the first dose of the vaccine.

On the other hand, Health information 687 new cases confirmed by the molecular test, 164 new cases probed by the antigen test and 754 new cases by the serological test. The new results are part of examples that will take place between the 7th and 21st of January 2021.

The total number of cases confirmed increased to 83,670, but it was adjusted slightly by the fact that some cases will be released by January 7, 2021. In addition, 11 duplicate cases will remain.

Asimismo, we will adjust the total of probable cases, which is a high of 6,403, but there are 62 cases left that will have a positive molecular test and some new cases will be closed by the year 7 of 2021.

También adjusts the totality of suspected cases, which is 64,390, while 69 cases remain where a positive positive test is performed and six cases where a positive antigen test is performed.

The case is likely to be a positive result of the disease if it is through antigen testing. While, the suspicious cases, also known as anticonvulsant results, are those that are positively charged with the serological test, and do not have a molecular test or positive antigens.

The probable death is that of a patient who was diagnosed with COVID-19 median an antigen test or that his clinical team meets the criteria to create a COVID-19 pad, but only a molecular test of the antigen -virus. Meanwhile, the suspicious death refers to the failure of a person in which a specific antecedent is detected in the blood, plasma or means a serological test with its blood.
