The totality of confirmed cases has been adjusted slightly since a total of 41 cases with master clips from November 16 to December 1 and there will also be duplicate cases. The universe of the probable cases is also adjusted to remain 25 cases that will have a positive molecular test. The same is true with the total number of suspected cases where Salud remains 66 cases where a positive positive test was performed and six cases where a positive antigen test was performed and a total of 15 cases were recorded from November 10 to December 5. . Asimismo remains of duplicate cases in this category.

This case is likely to have a positive effect on the patient if they are through antigen testing. While, the suspicious cases, also known as anticonvulsant results, are those that are positively charged with the serological test, and do not have a molecular test or positive antigens.

In addition, the agency explained a death confirmed by COVID-19 corresponding to the death of a person with one of the most positive molecular tests. The death that is probable is the decision of a patient who was diagnosed with COVID-19 by means of an antigen test or that his clinical team meets the criteria for creating a COVID-19 pad, but there is only one molecular test of the antigen. -virus. Meanwhile, the suspicious death refers to the failure of a person in which a specific antecedent is detected in the blood, plasma or means a serological test with its blood.

Positive Cases (Molecular Test)

The total number of 66,583 casos positiveos confirmados corresponds to 35,873 mujer and 30,710 hombres. The patient group ranges from 20 to 29 years dominated by the mayor’s number of contagios (11,787), followed by 30 to 39 years (11,136) and 40 to 49 years (11,047).

Casos positivos probabilities (prueba de antígenos)

The total of 3,905 positive cases in antigen testing are divided between 2,165 which correspond to women and 1,740 men. In this category the group of patients between 40 and 49 years registers the Mayor number of probable infections with 610, followed by the group from 20 to 29 years with 592 and from 30 to 39 years with 570.

At the communal level, Bayamón holds the term of mayor of likely cases with 321, followed by San Juan (276), Caguas (195). The agency does not have available the people of 187 cases probabilities.

Suspicious positive cases (serological test)

In total, the 51,097 casos positiveos probabilities see a division between 28,659 which corresponds to mujeres and 22,438 a hombres. In this category the group of patients between 20 and 29 years old also registers the Mayor number of probable infections with 8,855, followed by the group of 40 to 49 years old with 7,966 and the 50 to 59 years old with 7,736.
