COVID cases down but hospitalisations still on the rise, health officials say

Health officials in Cyprus are warning that even though the number of COVID-19 cases has decreased, hospitalisations and ICU admissions remain high and urged the public to continue taking personal protective measures especially during the 15th of August holiday season.

According to epidemiologist Michalis Voniatis the number of cases might have gone down but hospitalisations remain stable.

He told CNA that if the situation does not subside soon, then September will be a difficult month.
