In his usual press conference, Durán pointed out that in the new post-COVID-19 recovery scenario that reached its second phase in most of the Cuban provinces with the exception of Havana and Matanzas, “it is when the protection measures have to be maximized, because we are already on the street, we return to activity and the risk increases.”

On Friday 2,635 tests were made, thus the island has processed a total of 180,697 tests, of which 2,369 have been positive (1.3%).

Since the health crisis caused by the pandemic in Cuba began, 2,227 patients have recovered from the disease. For days the number of deaths from COVID-19 has remained at 86.
