In spite of one more death at the Robert Reid Cabral Children's Hospital in Santo Domingo, the Minister for Public Health is reporting a decrease in the number of new cases. According to Listin Diario, Minister Bautista Rojas Gomez reported just six new cases at the Robert Reid Hospital, two at the Luis Eduardo Aybar Hospital, three at the Los Mina Hospital and none at the Moscoso Puello or the Santo Socorro hospitals. Rojas Gomez said that not only had there been a reduction in the number of cases coming into the hospitals, but that fewer cases were confirmed to be dengue fever after laboratory tests.
According to a report from the Plaza de la Salud Hospital, only eight percent of cases of high fevers are finally diagnosed as dengue. This was the result of over 1,000 free tests administered by the hospital.
