With 683 new infections, Panama exceeds 116,000 COVID-19 cases
The number of deaths due to COVID -19 in the country rose to 2,440 with a total of 10 new deaths, maintaining a case fatality rate of 2.1%.
According to the epidemiological report, of the active patients, 19,980 are in home isolation and another 381 are confined in hotels; while another 851 are hospitalized (735 in ward and 116 in intensive care).
There are a total of 21,212 clinically recovered patients.
Minsa indicated that in the last hours 5,925 tests were carried out, for a percentage of positivity of 11.%.
To date, a total of 514,367 tests have been carried out, reaching 12,022 tests per million inhabitants.
According to the age group, patients between 20 and 59 years of age continue to be the most affected in terms of contagion, however, most deaths correspond to those over 60 years of age.
NOTE:
Some critics have argued that the Minsa reported case fatality rate (number of COVID linked deaths / number of known cases) in reality should be much lower, as the number of reported cases does not necessarily reflect the truth, as the testing does not cover the whole population, and many cases go undetected. At the same time, the government can't report what they don't know, but readers should note that the numbers may tell a different story from the reality.
Also, how a "COVID death" is counted is also unclear, as many of the deaths correspond to underlying previous conditions, such as cancer, blood diseases, other age related diseases etc., and are reported as COVID deaths since the patient also had the coronavirus. On the other hand, many viruses are known to lower the patient's immunity and expose them to other diseases. As an example most HIV/AIDS patients don't die from the virus itself, but from other derived diseases such as pneumonia or regular flu.
In lack of better information sources, PanaTimes continues to report the government (Minsa) announced figures. Readers are adviced to use their own judgement.

An international body of lawyers backed by global scientists and doctors is initiating Global Class Action Lawsuit procedures for Global Covid19 Crimes Again Humanity on behalf of all global victims! This is happening sooner than I originally thought it would. I have been writing about the crimes happening for over 6 months now and calling them out as crimes against humanity now thousands of the brightest minds in the world are joining forces to convict and punish these crimes against humanity and the continued efforts to continue the deadly fraud.
Listen to Dr. Reiner Fuellmich a USA & German Bar Lawyer explain what is going on globally against the criminals involved in this. This is great news for humanity against these very dangerous crimes happening and continuing against humans across the entire planet. He’ll detail information that has documents in detail the exact crimes happening. Anybody involved in these crimes better get their act together fast as there is a global witch hunt coming for anybody involved in the global crimes against humanity.
