Macau’s Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture, Ao Ieong U, said on Friday that the government estimates one sixth of Macau people are infected with COVID, and that the number of people with the disease was expected to peak in a week’s time.
She said, “The number of infected people is almost at its peak, and according to statistics, about one sixth of Macau people are infected, but the exact number is difficult to ascertain because some infected people have repeatedly reported it on the internet.”
As well as predicting Macau will reach a peak of severe infection in a week’s time, Ao said that once Macau reaches the peak, all health care workers will be focused on the severely ill. However, IAG has noted that already appears to be happening.
