Balbisi added that the number of
hospital admissions is an indicator of the epidemiological situation, and
Jordan's situation regarding admissions “is currently good", as there are
less than 630 people infected in hospitals.
The number of infections this week
increased by 25–30 percent over last week, and 33 percent tested positive with
Omicron, he said, urging all individuals who had their last jab, first or
second, three months ago or more to take the third dose, stressing that the
government “is not considering taking any new measures despite the high number
of infections”.
