A big week before the lifting of part of the restrictions, the peak is still pending.
While the decline is already noticeably underway in Essonne, Paris or Val-d'Oise, the figures for monitoring the Covid epidemic in the Yvelines department are content to stagnate for the moment.
For several days now, the number of people who have tested positive each day has thus tended to fluctuate around 7,800, a very slight increase compared to the previous week (+ 8.33%).
The incidence rate also remains at a record level with 3,784 cases per week per 100,000 inhabitants.
The big leap of the week is in the test positivity rate.
This climbed to 32.3% against around 25% seven days earlier.
That is no less than one in three people tested positive.
This increase is due in particular to the drop in the number of tests carried out and the increasing use of self-tests, a trend observable at national level.
Nearly 640 people hospitalized in the department
In hospitals, the influx of patients now seems contained.
This Sunday, there was an average number of 57 daily hospitalizations over the last seven days, or only + 1.79% compared to the previous week.

Above all, there is now only an average of five admissions per day to intensive care, a figure that is in sharp decline (-28.5%).
In Yvelines, 638 people are currently hospitalized due to Covid, including 71 in critical care.
The occupancy rate of intensive care beds is 83.57%.
With regard to vaccination, 1.111 inhabitants of Yvelines had at least two doses of vaccine, which represents 92.59% of the adult population.
The number of first and second injections is now down compared to the previous week.
The average number of first injections performed each day is thus estimated at 324.
More than 710,000 people in the department have a three-dose vaccination schedule.
