Intensive care patients up by 40%, coronavirus cases 'levelling off'

Dutch News  

The number of coronavirus patients taken into intensive care has risen by 40% to its highest level for four weeks, according to the RIVM’s latest weekly bulletin. In the first week of February 118 people were taken into intensive care, up from 83 the previous week and 67 the week before. The RIVM said the infection rate appeared to be levelling off, although this week’s total figures were inflated by the addition of more than 300,000 tests from the last three weeks that were delayed because of the high demand on the testing system. In total 824,301 positive tests were reported by the local health board network last week, nearly 300,000 more than in the last week of January.
