Venceremos,<\/a><\/em> the doctor indicated that until now only the origin of the contagion of a patient from the municipality of Mais\u00ed, the last confirmed case in that territory, remains to be specified.<\/p>\nShe added that in the other 16 cases, the epidemiological investigation was concluded, which allowed the tracking and diagnosis of 10 to 15 direct contacts per person to break the chain of transmission by early isolation of the suspects.<\/p>\n
According to the publication, six Guant\u00e1namo residents remain in the Joaqu\u00edn Castillo Duany Military Hospital in Santiago de Cuba. There have been three discharges of patients from Baracoa, bringing the number of patients who have recovered from the disease to 10 in the province.<\/p>\n

Guant\u00e1namo, he said, maintains the death toll, more than 1,600 real-time PCR tests processed and 4,000 rapid tests.<\/p>\n
Fifty-nine suspects with acute respiratory infections, 87 positive contacts and 77 health workers who remain in active monitoring centers in the province are being monitored.<\/p>\n
Despite the favorable trend, the analyzes of the Provincial Defense Council have insisted on greater vigilance of the entry of travelers to the province in order to avoid transmission by that route.<\/p>\n
