After 3,617 new infections, the year 2022 began with a total of 2,847,486 confirmed cases of the coronavirus disease in 2019 (Covid-19).

The total number of illnesses recovered is 97.6%, or 2,778,567, with 468 added on Saturday.

According to the DOH’s Covid-19 bulletin, active cases have risen to 17,374.

There are 11,603 light cases, 673 asymptomatic cases, 339 critical cases, 1,635 severe cases, and 3,124 moderate cases among the active cases.

“Of the 3,617 instances reported today (January 1), 3,607 happened in the last 14 days, from December 19 to January 1, 2022,” according to the DOH.

The National Capital Region (NCR) had 2,526 new cases in the last two weeks, accounting for 20% of all new cases; Calabarzon had 570 new cases, accounting for 16%; and Region 3 (Central Luzon) had 199 new cases, accounting for 6% of all new cases.

With 43 more deaths, the death toll has risen to 51,545 people.

“Of the 43 deaths, 5 occurred in December 2021 (12%), 4 in November 2021 (9%), 7 in October 2021 (16%), 14 in September 2021 (33%), 6 in August 2021 (14%), 2 in July 2021 (5%), 3 in June 2021 (7%), 1 in November 2020 (2%), and 1 in August 2020 (2%) due to late encoding of death information to COVIDKaya,” according to the DOH.

The COVIDKaya is a digital application that allows health care professionals to collect and exchange information regarding Covid-19 instances.

The Department of Health further stated that the problem is being coordinated with the Epidemiology and Surveillance Units to ensure that information is current.

According to the data as of December 30, roughly 14.8 percent of the 29,239 people who were tested for Covid-19 were positive.

“From the total case count, sixteen duplicates were deleted, seven of which were recoveries and two of which were deaths. In addition, 95 instances tested negative and were removed from the total case count, 95 of which were recoveries, according to the DOH.

After final validation, 41 cases that were previously labeled as recoveries were reclassified as fatalities.

On December 30, two laboratories were unavailable, and six laboratories were unable to transmit data to the Covid-19 Document Repository System.

Based on statistics from the previous 14 days, the eight laboratories provide 0.2 percent of samples analyzed and 0.1 percent of positive persons, according to the DOH.

Patients with Covid-19 are currently using 20% of 3,500 critical care unit (ICU) beds, 22% of 18,700 isolation beds, 13% of 12,100 ward beds, and 11% of 2,900 ventilators across the country.

Meanwhile, the NCR has 25% of the 1,300 ICU beds, 23% of the 4,700 isolation beds, 24% of the 3,700 ward beds, and 14% of the 1,000 ventilators dedicated to Covid-19 patients.
