With 374 new recovered cases reported on Wednesday, the overall tally of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) recoveries nationwide climbed to 561,099.

Latest data from the Department of Health (DOH) show that the figure is equivalent to an 88.3-percent recovery rate among those who contracted the infectious disease nationwide.

There are a total of 4,387 new confirmed cases, bringing the total number of active cases to 61,733.

Of the active cases, about 93 percent are mild, 3.8 percent are asymptomatic, 1.3 percent are severe, 0.68 are moderate, and 1.2 percent are in critical condition.

Also logged were 18 more deaths, pushing the death toll to 12,866.

“Nine duplicates were removed from the total case count, and of these, six were recovered cases. Moreover, five cases that were previously tagged as recovered were reclassified as deaths after final validation,” the DOH said.

The department also reported that it has a total bed capacity of 21,400 dedicated to Covid-19 patients.

Available are about 53 percent of 1,900 intensive care unit beds; 60 percent of 13,500 isolation beds; and 67 percent of 6,000 ward beds.
