The Ministry of Health of Zacatecas (SSZ) issued figures on the behavior of COVID-19 in the state, as in recent weeks an upward trend has been observed at the national level.
The cases recorded, compared to last year, in epidemiological week 30; that is, from July 21 to 27, are within the expected parameters; 3,268 cases have been studied, of which 286 are positive, that is, 8.76 percent.
In the last two months, there has been an increase in the positivity rate in the cases analyzed, so the SSZ urges the population not to let their guard down and to reinforce hygiene measures.
If respiratory symptoms occur, it is important to use a face mask in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces; continue to wash hands frequently with soap and water and rub them for at least 20 seconds; clean surfaces and work utensils constantly, and seek medical attention immediately in case of discomfort.
