136 new coronasmittetilfælde in Denmark

The past day has been reported 136 new cases with coronavirus in Denmark.

this was stated by The Statens Serum Institut (SSI) in its daily inventory.

the Number of new smittetilfælde is the highest since the 22. June - however, at the near on Monday this week, where there was reported 207 newly infected. It belongs to the story that the figure from the Monday, also includes the weekend's numbers.

Out of the 136 new smittetilfælde derived 68 from Aarhus. It will say that half of the recent cases have been found in the country's second largest city. Between Wednesday and Thursday there were 34 new smittetilfælde in Aarhus.

- How some figures can vary from day to day, but it seems that there is still an increase (in Aarhus, eds.).

- It is also to be expected, because it is not many days ago, we have taken some initiatives. It is too early to see the effect of the initiatives, says professor and chief physician at Aarhus University Lars Østergaard.

The many smittetilfælde has led to the introduction of requirements on mundbind, when you drive with the public transport in Aarhus.

the Number of inpatients with coronavirus in Denmark rises from Thursday to Friday with one to 25.

Although the number of daily new infections has been increasing the past two weeks, it has apparently not resulted in a significant increase in the number of inpatients with covid-19.

- From being infected, to being sick, there actually several days up to a week. From you get sick, you need to get in the hospital, it may take even longer time, even up to a about a week.

- So the numbers you look for, how many are hospitalized, is not as timely accurate as the number infected in the community, says Lars Østergaard.

the Explanation can also be, says Lars Østergaard, the most commonly hospitalized with the covid-19 people are at risk, and that it is more people outside the risk group, which is represented in the new smittetilfælde.

There are no coronadødsfald since Thursday.
