The Ministry of Health revealed in its daily COVID-19 update this afternoon (Saturday 25th December 2021) that there are 420 new COVID-19 cases in Trinidad and Tobago plus twenty (20) additional deaths. These new patients will be processed for admission at the discretion of the CMOHs.
The number of new cases is the lowest for the month and represents a 56.43% decrease in reported cases from yesterday. It should be noted that due to the holidays, we can expect lower than usual positive case numbers as there may be reduced sample processing during this time. The Ministry provided the following information about the latest deaths:
There have been a record-breaking 18,003 new cases and 580 deaths so far in the month of December. The Ministry reported 964 new cases yesterday plus thirty-seven (37) more unfortunate deaths. The country’s death toll has increased to 2,738. T&T’s total positive cases now rises to 89,364 with 16,581 being active cases. A total of 70,045 patients have recovered from the virus to date. 15,509 persons are in home self-isolation and there are thirty-four (34) persons in total at State quarantine facilities. A total of 659,477 persons have been partially vaccinated with a first dose and 664,699 have been fully vaccinated (including single-dose Johnson & Johnson). 66,979 persons in total have taken an additional primary dose and booster. The percentage of patients in the parallel healthcare system who are NOT fully vaccinated is 87.5% (based on data from 22nd July - 8th December 2021). The Ministry states that the number of positive cases reported reflects the samples taken during a 4-day period between 21st - 24th December 2021 and not the last twenty-four (24) hours. The Ministry also notes that there are currently 491 COVID-19 positive patients being treated at Hospitals with twenty-four (24) in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and twenty-five (25) in the High Dependency Unit (HDU). 161 patients are in step-down/transition facilities across T&T.
