With 172 Coronavirus cases per 100,000 inhabitants, the infection rate in the province of Groningen is now well below the national average of 285 cases of illness per 100,000 inhabitants, reports the GIC. The figures have come via the public health organisation, the GGD Groningen. Compared to last week, the number of infections in Groningen has decreased slightly.
