The number of people infected with corona in the Starnberg district continues to rise sharply: 50 cases were added on Tuesday - the highest Tuesday value ever.

The seven-day incidence is around 168.

  • The corona numbers in the Starnberg district are increasing.

  • A corona outbreak occurred at the Starnberg Clinic.

  • Residents of the Rummelsberger Stift Söcking were also infected with the corona virus.

District

- With

50 new corona infections

, the

Starnberg district office

yesterday reported by far the highest value on a Tuesday since the beginning of the pandemic.

This is mainly due to

outbreaks in the Starnberg Clinic

and in the

Rummelsberger Stift Söcking

.

In the

hospital

were

five patients and five employees positively

tested for the virus.

According to information from Starnberger Merkur, this is the first case in which the

virus was transmitted

within the

clinic

.

The event came about by chance.

A patient who was

about

to be transferred to

another

clinic

was routinely tested.

The result was positive.

This was followed by

further tests

with the now present result.

At the time of going to press, the clinic was unable to provide any further information.

It was also still unclear what the immediate consequences of the outbreak would be.

Regardless of this,

eight residents of

the

Rummelsberger Stift in Söcking

have contracted

the

corona virus

infected, as Edith Maruska reported when asked by Starnberger Merkur.

As a head of department, she is also responsible for the Rummelsberger Stift in Starnberg.

There the tests by two residents and one employee were positive.

In Söcking there has been a

pandemic zone in the old building

since yesterday

so that the infected are spatially separated from the other residents, she says.

In Starnberg a living area was insulated.

The affected residents - most of them are over 80 years old and have dementia - are doing well so far.

“The night was quiet,” says Maruska.

It is clear to her that this is a snapshot.

After a test in the Söckinger Heim on December 12th, a resident was positive.

The head of

the department suspects the

virus

spread quickly because the demented residents met in the hallways.

"You can't lock people up."

The

nurses

, who according to Maruska

wear

FFP2 masks as

standard

, should now be tested every two days, the residents as often as possible.

The situation is still somewhat under control.

But Maruska reports an

enormous burden

.

“My working day often ends at 11pm.

The relatives call like madmen and insult you. ”On Monday, the home supervisor requested a ventilation concept -“ We have already written so many concepts, ”says Maruska.

Because of the many phone calls and e-mails, she can hardly keep up and has to constantly justify herself - “at a time when we should actually grow together.

Visiting the Rummelsberger Stift in Söcking is

prohibited until the end of the year

.

In the

Schindlbeck Clinic in Herrsching

, the situation did not worsen yesterday.

There are

no more deaths

, says spokesman Stefan Berger on request.

The number of infected employees has increased by two to 49, 30 of them are still in

quarantine

.

With the 50 new infections, the

number of corona cases

in the district has risen to 2577 since the beginning of the year.

In addition, there are 37 statistical errors that are only added to the district.

2224 of them are no longer in

quarantine

, which results in a mathematical value of 353 active cases.

According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the seven-day incidence is 155.10 (as of Tuesday, midnight).

There are 827 infected people and close contacts in quarantine at home (as of Tuesday, 4.45 p.m.).
