Key Points

• The number of positive cases is rising due to an increase in testing. However, among those tested, the positivity rate is lower than in previous weeks. The age-adjusted incidence rate was 137 per 100,000 residents in week 51 (vs. 117.3 in week 50), remaining at a still-high level.

• These trends are observed in all departments of the region and affect all age groups.

• In week 51, hospital indicators are down slightly, except in social and medical-social facilities, where a slight increase is observed.
