A great relief for everyone to no longer have to put on the mask and show their credentials in restaurants, cafes… But this relief will be short-lived, the epidemiological assessment shows an increasing incidence rate in all age groups and in all regions. The positivity rate is high and rising. With an increase in the number of new cases of 25%.
Despite everything, there is a stabilization of new hospitalizations and a drop in deaths.
As for the overseas territories, Martinique is still in bad shape with an incidence rate of more than 3,000/100,000.
No big surprise regarding the star variant. Omicron represents more than 99.9% of interpretable sequences according to the Flash S09 survey.
Regarding vaccination, 79.5% of the total population received a complete primary vaccination. 73.0% of those 18 and older received a booster dose.
Finally, we recall the importance of combined measures. A complete vaccination schedule including the recall from three months. Maintaining barrier gestures: wearing a mask, washing hands, frequent ventilation of closed places… Think regarding joining contact-tracing.
Good weekend to all !
