After the good data offered this Friday, June 18, by the Andalucian Institute of Statistics and Cartography of Andalucia (IECA), the province registers three more deaths from coronavirus today, June 19. This is the highest figure in all of Andalucia in this regard, representing almost half of the seven recorded in the entire autonomous community.

As for the number of hospitalized in Malaga, there are already 8,280 registered since the start of the pandemic. Meanwhile, there are currently 83 admitted, of which nine are in ICU.

Specifically, there are 100,152 those recovered from Covid, 232 more in the last 24 hours.

Vaccines continue to advance at a good pace in Andalucia, and all eyes have been on them in recent weeks.
