For a sec­ond straight week, there were no new deaths from COVID-19 in To­ba­go—and the is­land’s death toll from the dis­ease re­mains at 287, as at Sat­ur­day, No­vem­ber 26.

That’s ac­cord­ing to the lat­est week­ly up­date from the Di­vi­sion of Health, Well­ness and So­cial Pro­tec­tion, in the To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly (THA), cov­er­ing the pe­ri­od Sun­day 20 to Sat­ur­day 26 No­vem­ber 2022.

The most re­cent COVID-19-re­lat­ed death was re­port­ed dur­ing the week of 6-12 No­vem­ber 2022. At that time, the de­ceased was said to be an un­vac­ci­nat­ed per­son.  That death was the first re­port­ed in three weeks.

The THA Health Di­vi­sion re­port notes 10 more peo­ple test­ed pos­i­tive for COVID-19 in To­ba­go, last week. The num­ber of ac­tive in­fec­tions was ten, as at Sat­ur­day, No­vem­ber 26. This rep­re­sents an in­crease from the pre­vi­ous week (No­vem­ber 13-19, 2022), at which time there were five ac­tive cas­es.

In ad­di­tion, the Health Di­vi­sion con­firms that two pa­tients—one ful­ly vac­ci­nat­ed and the oth­er un­vac­ci­nat­ed against COVID-19—were hos­pi­talised last week in To­ba­go.  Be­tween No­vem­ber 6-19, there are no pa­tients hos­pi­talised with the dis­ease.

The To­ba­go COVID-19 up­date al­so re­ports that pa­tients con­tin­ue to sur­vive the dis­ease as five peo­ple were cer­ti­fied as re­cov­ered from COVID-19 dur­ing the pe­ri­od No­vem­ber 20-26, 2022.

A to­tal of 10,974 in To­ba­go have re­cov­ered from COVID-19 since March 2020—up from 10,969 the pre­vi­ous week.
