Of these, 138 remain hospitalized, including two in critical condition, 14 in serious condition, 26 in satisfactory condition, 93 in good condition, two suffering from anxiety and one under medical evaluation, according to the ministry.

During the past 24 hours, hospitals received 108 new patients—two in satisfactory condition, 105 in good condition and one suffering from anxiety, according to the statement.
