Ministry of Public Health Friday announced the registration of 761 new confirmed cases of Coronavirus disease (Covid-19) and the recovery of 59 cases, bringing the total number of recovered cases in Qatar to 809. So far 8525 cases have been reported in Qatar and at active cases now are 7706. The number of deaths so far stands at 10.
Most of the new cases are among expatriate workers most of who have been already in quarantine, after it was found that they were in contact with confirmed cases. All new infected cases have been put into isolation and are receiving the necessary medical care.?
The Ministry of Public Health stated that the recent increase in the number of confirmed cases of coronavirus is due to several reasons, including that the spread of the virus has begun to enter the peak stage (i.e. the highest wave that affects the country), which may continue to increase for a period of time before it begins to decline.
It is also due to the increase in the efforts of the Ministry and its medical teams to track the transmission chains of coronavirus and expand the surveillance process, including tracking people who have been in contact with people who were previously diagnosed with the disease. All of this has contributed to the early detection of many cases of infection and reduction of the spread of the virus.

MoPH also requesed all members of society to stay at home and cooperate fully with all health guidelines and preventive measures to reduce the risk of infection, including sticking to social and physical distancing guidelines. The Ministry also recommended that one can regularly visit the MoPH website for the most up-to-date guidance on how to stay safe.
