Key Points

Epidemiological indicators for SARS-CoV-2 in Martinique show an increase in viral circulation within the population, with no impact on the healthcare system to date. This could be partly explained by active circulation of the UK variant (20I/501Y.V1), detected through RT-PCR screening, and increased testing. This trend will be confirmed next week.

Given this situation, vigilance must be heightened by maintaining individual preventive measures and contact-reduction measures. The territory remains classified as having a high vulnerability level.
