The number of patients with Covid-19 received in intensive care or intensive care continues to grow slowly with 3,572 people treated in these services, or 12 more patients than yesterday, according to figures published Sunday, January 2 by Public Health France. A total of 19,043 people are hospitalized with coronavirus infection. Sunday, December 26, 16,365 people were hospitalized, including 3,299 in intensive care.
In addition, 101 patients have entered intensive care in the past 24 hours (they were 93 a week ago) and there are 652 new hospitalizations (against 485 a week ago). Some 91 people have died in 24 hours in hospital, up from 96 a week ago.
In addition, France reported 58,432 new confirmed cases within 24 hours, a level well below the 200,000 contamination mark crossed in the past four days, no doubt due to the fact that many screening sites were closed on Saturday, a public holiday, and this Sunday. On average, 162,000 daily new cases have been identified over the past seven days.
