Thirteen new cases have been reported in the Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board area over the past 24 hours. This takes the cumulative total in this area to 82.
Public Health Wales reported 14 further deaths in a day from across Wales. However due to patient confidentiality, it is not known how many deaths, if any, are from our region.
Dr Giri Shankar, Incident Director for the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak response at Public Health Wales, said:
“210 new cases have tested positive for Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Wales, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to 1,451, although the true number of cases is likely to be higher.
“14 further deaths have been reported to us of people who had tested positive for Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), taking the number of deaths in Wales to 62.
“We offer our condolences to families and friends affected, and we ask those reporting on the situation to respect patient confidentiality.
“Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) is now circulating in every part of Wales. The single most important action we can all take in fighting Coronavirus is to stay at home in order to protect the NHS, and save lives.
“We know that staying at home can be hard, and we want to thank each and every person across Wales for doing their bit to help slow the spread of the virus.”
