The Balearic health ministry's Saturday report points to a further notable fall in Covid hospitalisations. The number of Covid patients on wards is down by 21 to 242. While a decrease of just one was reported on Friday, the decrease was 36 on Thursday. Over three days, therefore, there has been a fall of just under 20%. Mallorca currently has 177 patients (14 fewer than Friday), Ibiza has 55 (-6) and Minorca ten (-1).

The ICU Covid occupancy rate is the same as on Friday, 14.9% - Mallorca 36 patients, Ibiza eight, Minorca seven.

According to the Saturday report, the figure for primary care cases in the Balearics has gone up by 460 to 5,723, which seems a bit odd. This could be an error. For Mallorca, the number is down 185 to 4,163.
