MADRID, May 28 (Xinhua) -- The Spanish Ministry of Health, Consumer Affairs and Social Welfare on Thursday confirmed a slight decline in the number of new coronavirus cases and deaths.

The ministry confirmed 38 deaths in the past seven days (one less than the 39 confirmed on Wednesday) from COVID-19, meaning a total of 27,119 people have now lost their lives in Spain to the coronavirus.

There was also a drop in the number of new infections detected by PCR tests (which indicate whether the coronavirus is active in the body). The ministry reported 182 new infections (compared with 231 a day earlier), taking the total number of confirmed cases to 237,906.

Of the new cases, 106 were confirmed in the regions of Madrid and Catalonia, while 13 of Spain's 17 autonomous communities reported less than ten new cases each in the last 24 hours. Enditem
