July 11, 2020 – After the numbers of new COVID-19 patients hit the three digits in Croatia for the first time yesterday, today the new record has been reached – 140.
The National Civil Protection Authority reported today that the current number of active cases in Croatia is 1,088, with 124 people hospitalized, and 3 on ventilators. Since February 25, when the first case of COVID-19 infection in Croatia was reported, 3,672 people have contracted the disease. 118 patients have died so far, including one patient who passed away in the last 24 hours.
1,322 people have been tested in the last 24 hours, for a total of 92,808.
Even before the official numbers were reported by the Civil Protection, Croatian media reported on the record-high numbers. Istria County reported they have four new cases, Zadar County seven, Osijek-Baranja County reported they had 50 new cases (out of 174 tested), 42 of them from Đakovo, including 37 nuns from the already known hotspot. Vukovar-Srijem County reported they have 12 new positive cases, Zagreb has 35 (out of which 7 can’t be contact-traced), Split-Dalmatia County has 12 new cases and Zagreb county 6. The total numbers reported by the national headquarters may differ from those reported by the local authorities because they don’t all report for the same 24-hour period.
At the same time, Slovenia has reported that the number of new COVID-19 cases there has doubled, and Bosnia and Herzegovina has also set a new record, with 316 cases in the last 24 hours.
