Fall of cases in Almería at the doors of the weekend
Health reports 41 cases and no deaths from Covid in the province
After two consecutive days in the province of Almería above 100 cases of coronavirus, the pandemic takes a break and once again places the number of infections below fifty.
According to the update of data from the Andalusian Institute of Cartography, in the last hours a total of 41 cases have been notified to the Ministry of Health by the three districts of Almeria. This implies a reduction of almost 70 infections compared to the part issued this past Wednesday.
At the doors of the weekend, the Ministry of Health and Families of the Junta de Andalucía has not notified any new death in the province, which leaves 839 the number of fatalities in Almería due to the Covid-19 pandemic .
In the same IECA report, it is noted that there are 49 new coronavirus cured in the Almeria geography and that hospital pressure has hardly changed in recent hours. Specifically, there have been three new admissions to Specialized Care centers, but none of them occupying beds in Intensive Care Units (ICU). Yesterday, the number of ICU beds occupied by Covid-19 patients was 7.
Where the coronavirus does not give truce is in the rest of Andalusia, since today a total of 2,327 cases have been reported compared to 2,156 the previous day. In the autonomous community as a whole, we must also regret six new fatalities, according to the data available on the website of the Institute of Statistics and Cartography of Andalusia.
With these data, Andalusia maintains a high accumulated incidence rate, which led the Committee of Experts this past Tuesday to not relax the restrictions in the community as a whole. Only the opening of terraces in the hotel business was authorized until one in the morning, but making it clear that the last drinks have to be served at midnight at the latest.
In the case of Almería, the three health districts of Almería remain at alert level 1, the lowest of those stipulated by the Ministry of Health and Families of the Junta de Andalucía.
Late in the morning today, the department headed by Jesús Aguirre will provide more details on the incidence of Covid-19 in the eight provinces in its daily part.

Salud Andalucía app and EU vaccination certificates
Here are some details of me getting my EU vaccination certificate in Andalucía.....
Accessing your EU vaccination certificate in Andalucía
Some time ago I did a bit of research about how I can access my vaccination certificate that is allocated to me by the Junta de Andalucía.
The process is a bit fiddly but doable. Here is what I did on an android phone.
1. First step is to download an app called Salud Andalucia to your phone.
2. When you open the app you should see an option of Certificados COVID-19. Tap on this.
3. Then 3 options appear - tap on Vacunación.
4. It then says you need a session to use this section. Would you like to login? - Tap Accept
5. Tap on the option Dato personales y verificación móvil
6. a) You then have to enter your 10 digit Andalucía medical number (after AN). Note if you have an orange social security card (not a green medical card) it does not have this number on it. You can find the correct 10 digit number on any paperwork you get from the doctor or the hospital. Or on a green medical card.
b) Change DNI to NIE then enter your NIE number (or perhaps choose passport or other identity information and enter the correct info)
c) Enter your date of birth
d) Enter the phone number you want to use to receive a verification code.
e) Tap Iniciar (or something similar) to start the process.
7. They then send you a text message with a 6 digit code to validate your login.
8. You type in the validation number and tap the button to log in.
9. It works and you can see your QR code. Plus you can download a PDF of your certificate.
10. At this point it appears that the exact steps depend on the type of phone you have. As exact instructions depend on the manufacturer of the phone. Using phone specific methods you can download a PDF file containing details of vaccinations and a QR code.
Time for certificate to be created and/or updated
From my experience your online certificate is created for the first time within 24-48 hours of your first vaccination.
Mine also took more than 24 hours and less than 48 hours to be updated after my second vaccination. Also, your certificate goes offline at some point during that period. Saying you do not have a certificate as all. I guess there is a gap in time between them deleting the old certificate and publishing the new one.
Did the earth move for you - 08:36 local time, 8 July 2021?
Jacqui and I had to get up early (for us) this morning. I had an 08:25 alarm and got up to make a cup of tea straight away.
At 08:36 local time I was sitting in bed with a cup of tea. I looked over to Jacqui (who was standing at her side of the bed) and said "did the earth move for you?". Sadly, she said no.
Now I know what happened. You can see the details here.
I have just found out from Facebook that is happened less than an hour earlier as well. Details here. I was asleep for that one.
