An Italian doctor from the region of Lombardy who was on vacation in Tenerife has tested positive for coronavirus in the south of the island. The Ministry of Health of the Canary Islands Government has activated the protocol after learning that the tests performed on this tourist confirmed the first positive. The analyzes have been carried out at the Nuestra Señora de La Candelaria University Hospital with kits supplied by the Ministry of Health. It is expected that throughout this Tuesday, a second test will be carried out at the National Center for Microbiology of the Carlos III Health Institute.

At the moment, following the protocol, the Italian tourist is isolated in a health center in the south of Tenerife, specifically in the Quirón Sur de Adeje Clinic. The patient is under sanitary control and has good health.

According to sources of the counseling, the tourist voluntarily showed up at a health center on the Island and asked to have the tests done because he was suspected of being affected. As he indicated to the health personnel in the questionnaire that was made, he did not believe he had been infected by having been in direct contact with a coronavirus patient.

An Italian doctor from the region of Lombardy who was on vacation in Tenerife has tested positive for coronavirus in the south of the island. The Ministry of Health of the Canary Islands Government has activated the protocol after learning that the tests performed on this tourist confirmed the first positive. The analyzes have been carried out at the Nuestra Señora de La Candelaria University Hospital with kits supplied by the Ministry of Health. It is expected that throughout this Tuesday, a second test will be carried out at the National Center for Microbiology of the Carlos III Health Institute.

At the moment, following the protocol, the Italian tourist is isolated in a health center in the south of Tenerife, specifically in the Quirón Sur de Adeje Clinic. The patient is under sanitary control and has good health.

According to sources of the counseling, the tourist voluntarily showed up at a health center on the Island and asked to have the tests done because he was suspected of being affected. As he indicated to the health personnel in the questionnaire that was made, he did not believe he had been infected by having been in direct contact with a coronavirus patient.

This is the second case of coronavirus recorded in the Canary Islands, after the positive of a German tourist who traveled to La Gomera and was infected in his country. That patient has already been discharged.

In coordination with the Ministry of Health, the same protocol has been activated in the Canary Islands that has been put in place before other suspicious cases in other parts of Spain. The Ministry of Health has activated a toll-free telephone line 900 112 061 from which a Nursing team, under the coordination of the Canary Islands Emergency Service (SUC), will respond to requests from citizens for information on prevention measures, possibilities of contagion and false concepts related to the virus.

This infected is the third case that is registered in Spain, although to date on all occasions the patients have turned out to be foreigners. The second case was a Briton who was in the Balearic Islands. Now the health authorities will have to trace the steps of this Italian citizen to know if there could have been more infections.
