    The confirmed infections include 2,473 medical workers, 3 of which were recorded between Sunday and Monday.

    The positive cases registered in the same period emerged from 7,133 PCR tests administered in the past 24 hours, including 5,255 local tests and 1,878 others conducted at Beirut-Rafik Hariri International Airport.
