MADRID, June 25 (Xinhua) -- At least 80 people have been infected with the coronavirus at a Red Cross center that houses migrants in the city of Malaga in southern Spain, health authorities in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia confirmed on Thursday.
Spanish State TV network RTVE informed that for the moment none of the infected is in a serious condition or needed hospital treatment, as nearly all of them are young people who made dangerous sea crossings to Spain from North Africa in the past weeks and months.
