The Ministry of Health and Families continues with the massive vaccination campaign against Covid-19 in the municipality of El Ejido. The mayor, Francisco Góngora, together with the manager of the Poniente Sanitary District, Queti Quesada, has come this morning to the point located in the Fairgrounds where mass vaccination against the coronavirus is being carried out for people over 80 years of age, as well as well as professionals from pharmacies, private clinics and dentists. They are being cited progressively by the Andalusian Health Service (SAS) and in a few days they will start with the teaching staff.

Almería is the only province in Andalucía still in the extreme risk category - story from yesterday (El Ejido not doing well!)

Almería is the only Andalusian province that is still at ‘extreme risk’ due to covid

Although incidence continues to decline, it remains above the rate 250

Almería is the only Andalusian province that remains at ‘extreme risk’ due to coronavirus, which the covid semaphore places above 250 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in 14 days. The region as a whole has come out of this situation, with a rate of 215.2, like all the provinces except Almeria, which, although it continues to decline, currently has an incidence of 317.2 infections per 100,000 people.

Although this evolution can be considered logical, since Almería has remained in recent weeks as the province with the highest incidence of covid, now there has also been a halt in the general decline in cases in the health districts of Poniente and Levante-Alto Almanzora. On the other hand, the Almería district and the capital, which had accumulated the highest growth weeks ago, are now reducing the incidence at a faster rate.

However, the three districts of Almería are still well above the Andalusian average rate and are among the eight with the highest incidence in the community, out of the 33 existing ones. In fact, the Levante district is now the one that accumulates the highest rate in the region in 14 days, of 381.9, while that of Poniente is fourth with 322.4 and that of Almería the eighth with 281.2, after drop more than 27 points on the last day.

In it, the capital is also the only Andalusian that does not get out of extreme risk, despite dropping its rate by more than 36 points on the last day, to 304.

The Andalusian health districts in the best situation are those of the Sierra de Huelva, with an incidence rate of only 41.5, and the Guadalquivir district, with 80.9.

Both are the only districts that fall below the 100 rate that experts and health authorities desire so much to achieve greater control of the pandemic. The situation in the Poniente district now seems the most worrying, since it has broken the downward line and now its incidence rate rises slightly, by a point and a half. Although it is not a notable reduction, it is that slowdown in the reduction of cases.

El Ejido This increase may have a lot to do with the situation of El Ejido, which has seen its rate increase by more than 24 points, going from 448.9 on Wednesday to 474 this Thursday, which places it again very close to the rate 500 that marks the perimeter closure of the municipalities, according to the new restrictions imposed by the Junta de Andalucía.

The infections confirmed in El Ejido during the last week, 195, are very close to those in the capital (220). However, in Poniente Roquetas it does maintain much better data, and is even widely outside the ‘extreme risk’, with 187.9 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in 14 days and 78 infections detected in the last week

Another data that comes to add to this worsening in the situation of the West is the fact that the region concentrates 14 of the 21 new outbreaks detected in the province in the last week and 123 of the 175 total cases detected in them. In addition, the district has declared the largest outbreak in recent days in Andalusia, which has affected 51 people.

The other outbreaks have been distributed in the Almería district (three of 7, 10 and 6 cases) and Levante (four of 3, 3, 3 and 19 cases). In addition, another 20 outbreaks from the previous week are still active in the province.

In all Andalusia, 81 outbreaks with 522 cases have been detected in the last week, and 106 of the previous one are still active.

Stats for the last 24 hours - 154 new cases and 3 more deaths

The first vaccines for teachers from Almeria arrive

The process will take several weeks, according to the Board

The vaccination against the coronavirus for Infant, Primary and Secondary teachers in the province of Almería has already officially begun.

Without official figures as of press time, more than 500 teachers, all of them under 55 years of age, have received the first dose of AstraZeneca, the vaccine already authorized for the population under that age.

Only in the Northern Health Management Area of ​​Almería, which includes municipalities in the Levante and Almanzora regions, 430 doses were administered yesterday. To this figure must be added the records in the health districts of Almería (capital, Nacimiento and Andarax, Níjar and Carboneras regions) and Poniente, to which the municipalities of La Alpujarra belong.

Yesterday, the mass vaccination point in the capital, in the Palace of the Mediterranean Games, operated throughout the day from nine in the morning to nine at night.

17,000 until Monday

Until the morning of last Monday the vaccination schedule has been completed in a total of 215,021 people in Andalusia who have already been injected with the two doses (2.54% of the population), of which 16,894 are from Almería; 29,886 from Cádiz; 24,335 from Córdoba; 26,616 from Granada; 12,895 from Huelva; 19,148 from Jaén; 37,787 from Malaga and 47,460 from Seville.

At the regional level, this Monday began the vaccination of Infant, Primary and Secondary Education teachers, a process that could take place over several weeks, the Board clarified in a statement.

In this sense, the Central Trade Union Independent and Civil Servants, CSIF, urges the Administration, both educational and health, to establish a calendar for priority vaccination also of teaching staff over 55 years, made up of some 20,000 professionals in Andalusia , to which, at the moment - according to current recommendations - cannot be vaccinated with the AstraZeneca serum, which will be administered to the youngest teachers.

Specifically, in the province of Almería this group is made up of 1,648 professionals, which represents 16.6 percent of the province's teachers.

CSIF values ​​that the Autonomous Administration has decided to give preference to teachers in vaccination against Covid-19 as a group at high risk of exposure to contagion, as the union central has repeatedly requested, although it demands "certainties about how will proceed with the educational group over 55 years, who must also be vaccinated ".

This has been stated by the Education Sector, which has stressed that "now that, fortunately, the youngest teachers are starting to be vaccinated, the Board must also seek a solution for the group over 55 years old."

Stats for the last 24 hours - 148 more cases and 6 more deaths

Stats for the last 24 hours -  180 more cases and 1  more death

https://www.lavozdealmeria.com/noticia/12/almeria/209685/la-curva-se-estabiliza-con-180-casos-y-un-muerto-y-los-ingresos-siguen-a-la-baja

Google translation:

The curve stabilizes with 180 cases and one death and income continues to decline

The release of hospitalized patients is relaxed, but there have been five in the last 24 hours, one from ICU

The epidemiological curve of the province of Almería has left the worst days of the pandemic behind and has done so after adding in the last week continuous decreases in positives until the curve stabilizes around 200 infections in 24 hours, a high number of positives due to covid but which represents a respite from the aggressiveness of the virus during the month of January and the first days of February.

This has also happened this Sunday, when Almería has added another 180 new positives for covid detected through PDIA tests (antigen test and PCR), which represent a slight increase of 14 infections compared to the day before, but there are almost fifty fewer of those detected last Friday, when they were 227. With this new increase, the province now has a total of 43,787 positives detected since March, more than 44,000 if the data from the rapid tests are also counted, which the Ministry of Health and Families of the Junta de Andalucía only updates from Monday to Friday.

In the same way, the decrease in positives has also been transferred to the counter of deaths from covid, which in the last 24 hours has been only one patient in the province, which leaves 609 deaths since March in one of the days with fewer deaths from coronavirus in recent weeks and which is also accompanied by a decrease in the number of hospitalized patients, since at the moment there are 239 people from Almeria who are in the hospital, of which 70 are in serious condition in Intensive Care.

The figures for this Sunday represent a decrease of five hospitalized compared to the day before and one less patient in the ICU and confirm the positive drift that the covid takes in the hospitals of the province, where today there are almost 100 patients less than just a week ago, since last Sunday, February 14, there were 328 people from Almeria with coronavirus who were hospitalized and 77 in the ICU. Likewise, if the view goes back a week, until Sunday, February 7, the drop in pressure in the province's hospitals becomes more than evident, since the slightly more than 200 today contrast with the 414 that had just 14 days ago.

Finally, in the section of recovered patients who have received epidemiological discharge after having overcome the covid-19 disease, the number in the last 24 hours is 127, which leaves 29,173 patients already cured since March, but compared to the 180 positives does not prevent active cases from continuing to rise in the province, which today are already above 14,000 (14,005 if only the PDIA tests are taken into account, around 300 more if the rapid tests are counted).

Regarding the autonomous community, Andalusia today added another 1,220 positives and 39 deaths and the situation in hospitals is as follows: Cádiz (379 hospitalizations, of which 97 in the ICU), Córdoba (188 hospitalizations, of which 62 in ICU), Granada (359 hospitalizations, of which 101 in ICU), Huelva (104 hospitalizations, of which 26 in ICU), Jaén (174 hospitalizations, of which 42 in ICU), Malaga (502 hospitalizations, of which 85 in ICU) and Seville (388 hospitalizations, of which 98 in ICU).

Four dead in another day of drop in hospitalizations and less than 200 cases

Today there are 244 hospitalized and there are 71 in Intensive Care

The more than 200 positives on Friday were a small bump on the downward path that the epidemiological curve has been on track in the province over the last few weeks, when it has gone from adding more than 1,000 positives in a single day to today , Saturday, with only 166 new infections detected in the last 24 hours.

The evidence that Almería is closer and closer to completely defeating the third wave of the virus does not come only through the infected, who are already more than 43,000 throughout the Almeria geography since March, but also It becomes visible in the hospitals of the province, Torrecárdenas, Poniente and La Inmaculada, where hospitalizations of covid patients have fallen from more than 400 that there were only one week to the current 244, of which 71 are in Intensive Care given its severity. With respect to the day before, 23 patients have left the hospital and two have left the ICU.

But the deaths put the worst face of this pandemic back on the table and from 07:00 hours on Friday until the same time this Saturday, the death of four other people from Almeria has been registered, who had previously tested positive PCR. Thus, there are already 608 covid patients in the province who have lost their lives since March.

Despite the deaths, the good news continues in the epidemiological part that is provided daily by the Ministry of Health and Families of the Junta de Andalucía, since today recovered patients with high epidemiology are practically the same as those who are newly infected, since They have been 159 compared to the 166 positives detected in 24 hours.
