For the first time, a home worker has been charged with being responsible for a coronavirus outbreak that killed three people.

She faked her vaccination card.

Hildesheim – Three people died of Corona in a home, and an employee has to go to court: A former employee of the home has to answer to a court for a Covid outbreak with three deaths in a Hildesheim nursing home.

The charge of negligent homicide and negligent bodily harm had been admitted, a spokesman for the district court in Hildesheim told the dpa on Monday.

Der Spiegel

and

Die Zeit

had first

reported on this.

The 45-year-old is accused of faking a double vaccination against the corona virus by presenting a fake vaccination certificate.

At the end of November 2021, the woman initially continued to work as a so-called everyday companion in the home in Lower Saxony, despite her son's corona infection.

Her employer had allowed this because he assumed that she had been vaccinated twice.

However, the vaccination card presented was forged.

Three residents aged 80, 85 and 93 died in the outbreak in the home.

Although she admits that her vaccination card was fake, she denies being responsible for the Corona outbreak.

She is said to have been infected with the corona virus herself unnoticed and initially infected a colleague during a coffee break.

The case is a novelty: according to Zeit

, no other charges have been reported

since the beginning of the pandemic after outbreaks in homes, clinics or medical practices , although there have been numerous investigations and suspicions of organizational or individual misconduct.

According to the spokesman for the regional court, the process will not start before March 2023.
