The western province of Pinar del Río, which in recent weeks has become the epicenter of COVID-19 in Cuba, once again reported the highest number of new cases in the country at the close of this Saturday.

This time there were 18 new patients detected in that province, out of the total of 22 registered throughout the country. Of these, 10 are from the main municipality, while five are from Sandino, and Consolación del Sur and Mantua reported one each.

The remaining cases are from the provinces of Sancti Spíritus (one autochthonous), Camagüey (one imported), Holguín (one imported), and Santiago de Cuba (one imported).

In this way, the island reached 7,590 infected people discovered since the beginning of the pandemic. In addition, the number of deaths from the disease remained at 131, as none were registered in the last 24 hours, and that of recovered amounted to 7,060, with 45 discharges given yesterday. The evacuees are still two.

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.
