Data for Tuesday 29 March. The positivity rate was 15% with 660,708 swabs. We are at the plateau of the curve. Admissions: +244. Intensive care unchanged
I’m 99.457
the new cases of Covid in Italy (yesterday there were 30,710, here the bulletin). It goes up like this at least 14.496.579
the number of people who have contracted the SARS-CoV-2 virus (including recovered and died) since the outbreak began. THE deaths today I’m 177
(yesterday 95), for a total of 159,054 victims from February 2020.
People recovered or discharged they are altogether 13.070.647 e 87.297 those that have become negative in the last 24 hours (40,300 yesterday). The positive current – the subjects who have the virus – turn out to be in everything 1.266.878equal to +12.822 compared to yesterday (-8,835 the day before).
The swabs and the scenario
I total swabs (molecular and antigenic) were 660.708, or 449,173 more than yesterday when it was 211,535. The 15% positive rate (the approximation of 15.05%); yesterday it was 14.5%.
More infections in 24 hours than yesterday: nearly 100,000. The curve at the weekly peak of its swing with Tuesday’s data, after hitting the low point (Monday). We should be at the plateau and you can see it from the comparison with last Tuesday (March 22) – the same day of the week – when they were recorded +96,365 almost with a rate of 15%: because it is true that today there are more new infections than that day – with a delta of + 3 thousand -, but the percentage is the same (15% against 15%). Just look at the chart to understand that the curve is flattening outbeyond the daily fluctuations, before the descent. The greatest number of newly infected in Lombardy (+12,518). Followed by: Campania (+11.755), Lazio (+11.430) and Puglia (+10.805).
Even a year agoin March 2021, there was an increase in infections (post-second wave) which had been exhausted in a month: already from the beginning of April 2021 the scenario began to improve.
A big difference between now and a year ago can be observed in the rate of hospitalizations. Second Agents with the data of 28 March, now the occupancy of places in ordinary departments at national level has risen to 15% (a year ago it was 43%) and that of intensive care units stable at 5% (a year ago it was 40%) .
I think the time has come to discuss together, at the European level, on how to deal with the next few weeks – said the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranzato the Council of European Health Ministers – and to work for a unique position on times and age groups to administer the fourth dose. I ask that there be a unitary position of the European countries. Non-homogeneous choices only end up confusing and do not help vaccination campaigns. Meanwhile, in the United States the Fda authorized the fourth dose Pfizer and Moderna for the over 50s, as well as for some categories of immunocompromised people.
The health system
The hospitalizations in non-critical areas are increasing and those in resuscitation are stable. The beds occupied in ordinary Covid wards I’m +244 (yesterday +315), for a total of 9,740 hospitalized. The beds occupied in intensive care (TI) are in total 487 – the balance here zero compared to yesterday, therefore no change – with 46 admissions to resuscitation (yesterday 39).
