SUPERINTENDENT of Public
Health, Prof. Charmaine Gauci
received the COVID-19 vaccine
yesterday morning, making her
the second high ranking Govern-
ment official to do so, after Pres-
ident George Vella received his,
several days ago.
Prof. Gauci has been the face of
the government response to the
pandemic, at one point giving
daily news conferences on the
latest updates. Earlier this week,
critics had upbraided Gauci for
not taking the vaccine.
Yesterday ut was announced
that 17,767 doses of the COV-
ID-19 vaccine had been admin-
istered so far. All patients at Ka-
rin Grech hospital have received
their first dose of the vaccine.
In the past 24 hours there were
119 new cases of COVID-19,
with 211 recoveries, bringing the
number of active cases to 2,646.
Total recoveries stand at 13,646
while total cases registered stand
at 16,542.
Two people died while infected
with COVID-19. An 89 year-old
woman dies at the Good Samar-
itan long-term care facility and
a 77-year-old man died at Ma-
ter Dei Hospital during the last
24 hours. The total number of
deaths stands at 250.
2,571 swab tests were carried
out in the last 24 hours, bring-
ing the total number of swabs to
586,434.
