Thanks for the last 2 posts, but forgiving my ignorance, the difference is massive and they can't both be right can they?
To Mr/Mrs Average the simply question is what is the situation on Fuerteventura in terms of exactly how many people on the island have COVID irrespective of who releases the figures or whether they have 'Canarian' residency or otherwise?
These two figures do nothing other than cloud the issue, baring in mind some may base their decision to visit the island or not on these figures.
As you know, I am skeptical of the accuracy of these releases anyway, simply because I struggle to see what they regard as a 'recovery' - these figures, to me, have to be guess work.......

The difference in numbers are non residents, some of these will be migrants the rest tourists.
It seems this wave is less serious if you catch it thankfully.
