Eight confirmed Covid patients are hospitalized, in the medical department of the Louis-Constant Fleming hospital, one of whom is on respiratory assistance.
Two medical evacuations of COVID-positive patients were also carried out, to Guadeloupe, between May 17 and 23.

It stands (for all the cases in Saint-Martin tested on the territory or residents tested outside the territory) at 341,3 / 100 inhabitants from May 000 to 17, against 23 / 159,5 in the week of 'before.
The weekly positivity rate is 6,4%. It is significantly higher than the week of May 17 to 23 (against 3,6% the previous week) and is above the vigilance threshold.
