Two days before 2022 and the Health Agency reports 889 new cases based on test 27,615 tests done with a 4.5% positivity rate last December 27. This means that there is a backlog of around 400 cases which most likely are still being verified or that patients may have been retested but are still testing positive and therefore are not included as a new case (which I think will not comprise the bulk of the unreported cases today).

The active cases are up at past the 10,000 mark as the number of mild and asymptomatic cases make a jump to 47.2%. The ICU bed utilization is also up by 1-2% nationally and in the National Capital Region.

There are 28 additional deaths.
