Ekaterine Tikaradze: We have an infection detection rate of 25% today, when it exceeded 37% before

According to the Minister of Health, Ekaterine Tikaradze, there are 445 free beds in the country.

As Tikaradze said at a briefing after the meeting of the Interagency Coordination Council, the activity in terms of testing over the weekend is low, but there is also less (25%) detection rate of infected.

"As of today, up to 10 thousand tests have been conducted. 2501 confirmed cases were identified. You know that weekend activity is quite low, which is reflected in the testing component, although it is also important that the detection is quite low. The detection rate today is 25%, when it exceeded 37% before. Today we have 3988 recoveries, which is also an important indicator, since the recovery rate in Georgia is 83%, which is a pretty good epidemiological indicator.

There are 6595 confirmed cases of inpatients, 1286 are on artificial ventilation, 392 are in the intensive care unit. We have 445 free bads", - Tikaradze said.
