Honduras’ health ministry confirmed two deaths from the virus this week, among patients with underlying health conditions, bringing the country’s total in 2025 to six.

“We have already surpassed last year’s infection limit; there are currently five people admitted to Hospital Escuela with suspected COVID-19,” said the head of Health Surveillance, Lorenzo Pavon.

Official data showed that from January to July last year, 596 COVID-19 cases were reported, while this year 654 cases have been recorded in the same period.

Wait, is Honduras taking Covid seriously?
