The symptoms of COVD have been changing with the new variants and now headaches, a runny nose or a hoarse voice are more frequent, but this does not mean that we should stop protecting ourselves. This Friday the Ministry of Health has registered 20,188 new cases of coronavirus, a figure higher than the 19,417 infections reported on Tuesday. The total number of people infected since the start of the pandemic thus amounts to 13,266,184.
By region, Madrid is the one that reports the most cases with 2,961 positives. It is followed by Catalonia (2,583 cases), the Valencian Community (2,495) and Andalusia (2,075).
