THE median age of cases is 37 yearswhile the median age of the deceased is 80 years.
Tested samples
In the reporting week, the positivity rate was 16.12% for a total of 913,832 of laboratory tests (RT-PCR/Rapid-Ag) with the seven-day average being 130,547 samples (7% weekly change).
From January 1, 2020 to July 10, 2022, in the laboratories that carry out tests for SARS-CoV-2 and that systematically declare all the samples they test, a total of 11,786,505 have been tested (7-month AD: 13,807, 4% weekly change) clinical samples while from Health Units and Levels of the EODY that carry out
Rapid Ag tests 74,897,970 samples tested (7-month AD: 116,740, 8% weekly change).

In the reporting week, 958 sample control actions were carried out by the Mobile Health Teams (COMY) of EODY, in which 110,217 Rapid Ag tests were carried out and 20,076 were found positive (18%).
Geographical dispersion
The map shows the geographical distribution of the COVID-19 cases of the last 14 days per Regional Unit of the country, based on the declared address of permanent residence of the patient, or the address of temporary residence for tourists and other temporary residents in Greece.
Both cases with a travel history (“imported”) and cases with possible domestic transmission are included.
EODY National Wastewater Epidemiology Network for SARS-CoV-2 data in the reference week
The results of the laboratory tests of the National Wastewater Epidemiology Network for the epidemiological surveillance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in urban wastewater, which operates under the coordination of the EODY, are announced. The samples come from the Region of Attica and the cities of Thessaloniki, Larissa, Volos, Heraklion, Chania, Agios Nikolaos Lasithi, Patras, Xanthi, Alexandroupoli, Ioannina and Corfu.
The samples are taken from the inlets of the local Wastewater Treatment Units (WTPs) and correspond to the population that
served by them.
