Five consecutive days without COVID-19 leaving deaths in Cuba. “It’s not to be over-confident, but it is the result of popular participation,” said Francisco Durán, national director of epidemiology, at the press conference of the Ministry of Public Health (MINSAP) morning briefing.

Meanwhile, the number of infections fell to 9; all were Cuban and, in total, 8 were detected without symptoms. Four of them were related to patients, while in five individuals the source of infection was not specified.

“It is the result of the search for the disease,” said Durán, stressing that just yesterday 1,951 tests had been processed.

Those identified as affected by the new coronavirus to date number 1,881, and the death toll remains at 79.

Se confirmaron 9 nuevos casos de #COVID19, para un acumulado de 1881 en #Cuba.
