8 new cases of coronavirus were diagnosed domestically yesterday. Of those, 7 were in quarantine at the time of diagnosis. 8 cases were also diagnosed on Monday and 7 on Sunday, so the daily figures are neither rising nor falling for now.

33 are currently in hospital with coronavirus, 3 of them in intensive care. The incidence of domestic infections today is 46.4, which is the same as it was on Monday but 0.3 points higher than yesterday.
