The total occupation of hospital beds in the hospitals of the Valencian Community is currently 69,29%, of which 66,65% are occupied by non-COVID-19 patients and 2,64% by COVID-19 patients .

The Minister for Universal Health and Public Health, Ana Barceló, highlighted that "after more than a month with an accumulated incidence below 50 at 7 and 14 days, the balance of the occupation of hospital beds for acute patients and for critics, shows that the Valencian Community is well below the average ".

For the head of Health, "this means that the behavior of citizens throughout this time has been exemplary, that the restrictive measures, even though they are harsh, have worked and that, obviously, we have all contributed with our responsibility to the figures of hospitalization is one of the best figures in the entire state. "

Specifically, the percentage of occupation of critical beds is 61,40%, where 9,32% are beds occupied by patients with coronavirus infection. On the floor, the percentage of bed occupancy by COVID-19 patients is 2,21%.

By provinces, in Alicante the percentage of beds occupied by COVID-19 patients is 1,82% compared to 63,74% of bed occupancy by non-COVID-19 patients. Thus, the number of occupied COVID-19 beds currently rises to 64 (47 in the ward and 17 critical) in this province.

In Castellón the occupancy of beds amounts to 4,66% (COVID-19) and 57,57% (not COVID-19). The number of occupied COVID-19 beds stands at 56 (44 on the floor and 12 critical).

According to Barceló, "despite the fact that these indicators are favorable and are below the average, we cannot forget at any time that the virus continues to be transmitted and we must, therefore, follow all the recommendations that are currently implemented in the Valencian Community ". "Let's not forget, we have to continue taking care of ourselves in order to take care of others," concluded Barceló.
