According to data from the Ministry of Health and Families, the total number of infected in the community has risen from the beginning of the pandemic to 404,621, of which 6,398 have sadly lost their lives, while the number of cured is 259,773, with 1,569 more patients reported as recovered on Sunday, Jan. 3.

Vice president of the Board, Juan Marín, together with the counsellor for the President and spokesperson, Elías Bendodo, both expressed their concern over the figures and anticipated that a very tough week was coming. Marín was much tougher and even predicted a substantial increase in hospitalisations and deaths with the current evolution of infections.
