Sixty more patients have recovered from the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) on Thursday, pushing the country’s overall tally of recovered cases to 475,596.

In its 4 p.m. case bulletin, the Department of Health (DOH) said the figures represent 91.5 percent of those who tested positive for the virus nationwide.

The agency also reported 1,169 new confirmed cases and 71 new deaths.

These figures brought the overall tally of active cases to 33,427 and the death toll to 10,552.

The DOH said about 84.8 percent of the active cases are mild, 9.3 percent are asymptomatic, 2.3 percent are severe, 0.47 percent are moderate, and 3.1 percent are in critical condition.

“There were nine duplicates that were removed from the total case count and of these, five recovered cases and one death has been removed. Moreover, five cases previously tagged as recovered were reclassified as a death,” it added.

Quezon City topped the list of places that logged the highest number of new cases with 57 infections.

It was followed by Isabela, 54; City of Manila, 42; Davao City, 42; and Rizal, 42.

DOH data on Jan. 27 showed that 1,298 or 5 percent of 27,400 who were tested turned out positive for Covid-19.

Currently, there are 26,600 beds dedicated to patients with Covid-19.

Available are 59 percent of 2,100 intensive care unit beds, 64 percent of 17,100 isolation beds, and 74 percent of 8,200 ward beds.

About 78 percent of 2,100 ventilators are available for Covid-19 patients’ use.

The DOH reminded the public to continue observing the minimum health standards, especially when going outdoors — the proper wearing of face masks and face shields, avoiding cramped places where physical distancing is impossible, and avoid staying outside for a long period. (PNA)
