Laboratories in the Czech Republic on Wednesday confirmed 248 new cases of coronavirus, about a hundred less than a week ago. Daily increments of new cases on weekdays remain the lowest since the end of August. The so-called incidence number also continues to fall, with 19 infections per 100,000 inhabitants in the past week. The highest number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last seven days is now in the South Bohemian Region with 37 cases and the lowest in the Hradec Kr\u00e1lov\u00e9 and Karlovy Vary Regions, where it is below five. Of the districts, the worst situation is in the \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov region, where the incidence number is 88, according to the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the beginning of last March, when the first coronavirus infections occurred in the Czech Republic, the ministry has registered more than 1.66 million confirmed cases of the disease. The daily increase in those infected has been gradually declining since the beginning of March this year when in the fourth wave of the epidemic in the Czech Republic they reached almost 17,000. Similarly, deaths with confirmed infection are declining. In March, about two hundred people died of covid-19 a day, and now the number of deaths per day has been below ten for about 14 days. So far, 30,211 people have died in the Czech Republic with the confirmed covid-19 disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the director of the Institute of Health Information and Statistics (\u00daZIS) Ladislav Du\u0161ek, the further development of the covid epidemic should be monitored by districts or municipalities. On Wednesday, in an interview with \u010cTK and \u010cT, he said that the worst situation is currently in the \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov, \u010cesk\u00e9 Bud\u011bjovice, Prachatice, and Klatovy regions, where the epidemic still has a growing tendency. According to current data from the Ministry of Health, the number of new cases per 100,000 inhabitants per week in the \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov region is 88, in the Klatovy and \u010cesk\u00e9 Bud\u011bjovice regions 63 and the Prachatice district 57. Above 25, the incident number has 14 districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Du\u0161ek, it is necessary to focus mainly on the districts of \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov and Klatovy. “Both of them still have a high capture charge, have growth characteristics, and have a relatively high test positivity,” he added. According to him, however, more patients are not going to hospitals yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
