7 April 2021: During the week from 28 March to 3 April an average of 4,266 people tested positive forSARCoV-2. The figure is down 11% on the week. However, there are still 3,053 patients in hospital of which 865 in intensive care. Experts expect that the downwards trend in infections soon will translate in a reduction of patients in hospital. In summary, 10 days after the stricter corona measures were introduced there is a ray of hope, but it’s very fragile.
