Corona tests for tenants and staff found only two viruses are now in isolation, but families are upset: "There are some still hanging out"

After six residents of Be'er Sheva's Mishan Nursing Home passed away from Corona, the families of the elderly residents of the place demand solutions from management. On Sunday, the families gathered to protest outside the nursing home building.

"We want all the Corona casualties to be moved to another wing or to another location. There are still some here who are walking around and not staying in isolation," the protesters said.

At noon, the full results of all the corona tests conducted by Mishan's management last week were received by tenants and staff. Of the 205 subjects - 203 were negative for the virus. The two found positive are a tenant and caretaker who are in solitary confinement according to the Ministry of Health guidelines.

• The 6th victim in "Mashan": the Soroka mythological nurse who died in the hospital

• Holocaust survivor and doctor: This is the 44th victim

• "The default cries to heaven, played in people's lives"

• Concern among families of residents of the Beit Shemesh nursing home: "People have gone out in shrouds"

Mashan's management said that "these good results indicate the correctness of the decision that Mishan's management proactively introduced all tenants to voluntary isolation and thus prevented chain adhesion. Moreover, the fact that only one caregiver was found to be positive, indicates that one thousand counts for the well-protected and strict conduct of all personnel. The staff move between the rooms and serve the occupants with safe conduct. "

However, Sylvia, whose 88-year-old mother lives in the nursing home, says: "On my mother's floor, there are two people who are infected in Corona and walk around freely. One of them knocked her at the door yesterday."

In a message, Dr. Alexander Ginzburg, Mashan's physician, told the tenants' families at the Be'er Sheva nursing home, he emphasized that all the occupants have been in solitary confinement for some time, which he claims has "proven itself well and is reflected in the fact that 203 of 205 Subjects last week were found to be free of virus. Only one caregiver and one resident were found to be positive. And they are in complete isolation according to the guidelines. "
