Six more deaths to 513. Now 143 in ICU, 16 of them on respirators. Donetsk continues to the be oblast with the largest current outbreak, reporting its 49th death today, and now has 16 in ICU, although none on respirator.
Today's counts are 112,116 ILI, 4,219 hospitalizations.
Five more deaths to 518 total. Over 94,000 reported ARI today, with 3,751 reported hospitalizations. Now 148 in ICU, 13 on respirators.
Of note is that several other oblasts now have more ARI cases than Lviv (inlcuding Kyiv and Donetsk), but less than half the total fatalities, indicating that treatment is saving lives (many of the Lviv deaths died before H1N1 was even indentified in Ukraine).
13 more deaths on the 19th for a total of 539, after eight deaths on the 18th to 526 total. Both reports released just now. Now 159 in ICU, and a whopping 27 on respirator. Those numbers represent a sharp increase in severe cases (respirator had been between 10-15 for the past two weeks), the result of the large ARI numbers of earlier in the week.
Now over 3 million ARI since the start of the outbreak.
This is an unusual report, likely due to the fact that this is Sunday. Ony 18,000 ARI cases, and a huge drop in the number of patients on respirator, from 27 yesterday to 11 today. That means at least 10 patients were weaned from respirators, unless today's report is in error.
All oblasts did report data today, but I have a suspicion that today is not complete data, and that the next two days will bring large ARI counts, both due to delayed reporting, and possibly the estimation errors Rick has mentioned.
Eleven more deaths, including a child in Donetsk (#59 there) today to 556. Over 79,000 ARI today, which is high, but not as high as I had expected based on Sunday's report.
177 now in ICU, 16 of them on respirators.
All oblasts but five over the epidemic threshhold, and two of the five that aren't over it are Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk, which were hit heavily in October, and may not have that many susceptible people left.
