On Friday 18th September the Murcia region had 7097 active cases
On Friday 25th the Murcia Region had 8,127 active cases, an increase of 1030 active cases in a week.
On Friday October 2nd the Murcia region had 8,240 active cases, a significantly lower rise in active cases of only 113 in the last week.
The total number of cases increased from 15,806 on Friday 18th (3328 new cases in a week), to 18,999 on Friday 25th ( 3193 new cases in a week). This week the total number of cases stands at 21,612, which is only 2613 new cases this week, so there has been a marked slowdown in the number of cases detected, and a slowdown in the rise in the number of active cases this week.
This does point to a slight stabilisation, and there has certainly been a marked decline in the number of active cases in the areas in which confinements have been applied.
The accumulated incidence for the last seven days has dropped to 181 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, which is a significant improvement on the position when compared to last Friday and also indicates a slowdown in the rate of new infections.
However, we obviously have the situation that there are more covid cases spread around the Region of Murcia today than at any point in the pandemic to date so far, so although the figures are "a little better" this week, and there is cause for a little cautious optimism, there are now cases in virtually every municipality. The list below shows the current situation as of Friday based on the cases identified in the last 7 days. This week little Ulea finally succumbed, so every single municipality has now reported cases in the crisis so far;
Note, the first figure shown is the actual number of cases diagnosed in the last 7 days, the second is the IA rate for the last 7 days (number of cases per 100,000 of population): In brackets the number of cases is indicated as either a positive or negative compared to the situation on Thursday, taking into consideration that patients are recovering and being removed from the list all the time)
