The 7-day incidence in the Freising district has more than doubled within a week.
To just under 170. There were more outbreaks, even after a party.
Freising
- The contact tracing team (CTT) of the health department is confronted with a diffuse corona infection, but also increasingly with smaller and larger "clusters". District Office spokesman Robert Stangl: “Numerous smaller outbreaks particularly affect the family area. The formation of smaller clusters can be observed more and more in schools and day-care centers. "Some of them also affect infected family members," reports Stangl. In addition, after another celebration in the district, twelve people tested positive. Another focus: Twelve corona cases have occurred in a retirement home in Moosburg.Eight residents and four employees in the facility received a positive test result. You are in isolation. Eight infected people have been vaccinated, says Stangl. The health department has ordered quarantine for close contacts. Another series of PCR tests is planned for early next week.
The contact tracing team is under stress
Because the contact tracing team at the health department is currently confronted with a significantly increasing number of cases, inquiries from citizens can only be processed with a time delay, emphasizes Stangl.
Anyone who emails the CTT will therefore automatically receive information in advance that will help answer many questions.
(By the way: Everything from the region is now also available in our regular Freising newsletter.)
In the case of people who tested positive using the PCR test, the CTT receives the results directly from the laboratory.
An employee will contact those affected as soon as possible.
If there are symptoms, you can have your family doctor put you on sick leave.
Stangl: “Anyone who tested positive using an antigen / rapid test should do a PCR test immediately.
If the positive rapid test result is presented, it is free of charge at the test station in the Luitpold facility.
If symptoms occur, a PCR test should be performed by the family doctor.
Fully vaccinated or recovered contacts are not subject to quarantine. "
50 cases of infection in kindergartens and schools
The district office (www.kreis-freising.de) now lists almost 50 cases of infection in schools and kindergartens.
In addition to the child concerned, one or two close contact persons are usually sent to quarantine, but sometimes the whole class or group is also sent.
13 corona cases now have to be treated in the clinic.
Five of them are in the intensive care unit, three have to be ventilated.
The scenario that the intensive care physicians had been warning of for weeks is now increasingly being reflected in reality, says Sascha Alexander, press spokesman at the clinic.
He assumes that the situation will worsen over the next few weeks.
"It's only really getting started now."
