Malta: Malta’s coronavirus infection rate drops to 1.1

The spread of coronavirus in Malta has slowed to the point where those infected are now passing it on to an average of just over one person.

Superintendent for Public Health Charmaine Gauci told Times of Malta the reproduction factor, or R0 has been recorded at approximately 1.1 in Malta.

The goal of all countries is to bring the R0 down to below 1, which has been achieved by Germany and is part of the reason why the country has begun to lift some containment measures.
