The health ministry's report on Wednesday indicates 246 new positive cases from 3,132 tests, giving a positive test rate of 7.82%, which is at least lower than the Tuesday rate of 8.9%. The number of fatalities remains 366, although there have been two deaths of care home residents. These are subject to a separate verification procedure and are included in the total number of deaths at a later date.

Nineteen more patients have left hospital and a further 97 have recovered. The number of patients on hospital wards in the Balearics has come down to 149, with 110 of these patients being in hospitals in Mallorca. In intensive care, however, there has been an increase of four to 49, with 39 in Mallorca.
