As for the 22 new cases, these were detected after the study of 8,760 samples. A total of 18 are contacts of confirmed cases, three have their source of infection abroad and in one it has not been possible to specify the origin of the disease.

Finally, 10 of the cases are female and 12 male. 77.2% (17) of the 22 positive cases were asymptomatic, which is why a total of 4,731 patients without symptoms at the time of detection have already been reported in Cuba, which represents 62.3% of those confirmed to date.
