There were no new COVID-19 deaths re­port­ed in To­ba­go last week with the is­land’s death toll from the dis­ease re­main­ing at 285, as at Sat­ur­day, Oc­to­ber 1.

That’s ac­cord­ing to lat­est week­ly up­date, cov­er­ing the pe­ri­od Sun­day 25 Sep­tem­ber to Sat­ur­day 1 Oc­to­ber 2022, from the Di­vi­sion of Health, Well­ness and So­cial Pro­tec­tion, in the To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly (THA).

In the pre­vi­ous week (Sun­day 18 to Sat­ur­day 24 Sep­tem­ber 2022), there were two new COVID-19 deaths re­port­ed.  The de­ceased were said to be one ful­ly vac­ci­nat­ed per­son and one un­vac­ci­nat­ed per­son.

In ad­di­tion, the THA Health Di­vi­sion re­port notes 23 more peo­ple test­ed pos­i­tive for COVID-19 in To­ba­go, last week. The num­ber of ac­tive in­fec­tions, as at Sat­ur­day, Oc­to­ber 1, was 48. This is a sig­nif­i­cant drop from the pre­vi­ous week (18-24 Sep­tem­ber 2022), at which time there were 69 ac­tive cas­es.

In terms of hos­pi­tal­i­sa­tions for COVID-19, the Health Di­vi­sion re­ports that two peo­ple are hos­pi­talised, one of whom has not been vac­ci­nat­ed against the dis­ease, while the oth­er pa­tient is ful­ly vac­ci­nat­ed.

The To­ba­go COVID-19 up­date al­so re­ports that pa­tients con­tin­ue to sur­vive the dis­ease as 43 peo­ple were cer­ti­fied as re­cov­ered from COVID-19 dur­ing the pe­ri­od Sep­tem­ber 25 to Oc­to­ber 1, 2022.

A to­tal of 10,868 in To­ba­go have re­cov­ered from COVID-19 since March 2020—up from 10,825 the pre­vi­ous week.
