With these figures, so far during the pandemic 37 thousand 702 Baja Californians have tested positive for COVID-19, a large part of this total in Mexicali (15 thousand and 65) and Tijuana (13 thousand 196).

6,263 people have died from the disease, most of them in the border city (2 thousand 767) and the state capital (2 thousand 426).
