Main-Spessart: the health department is currently overloaded | Radio Gong Wuerzburg

In the Main-Spessart district, the health department is currently overloaded. The authorities reported on Wednesday afternoon. The background is the rapidly increasing number of infections due to the omicron wave – which is why the health department is reaching its capacity limits.

The health department is now pointing out that not all cases can be processed promptly at the moment. We ask that you refrain from telephone inquiries.

In urgent cases, citizens should contact each other by e-mail ([email protected]) contact the health department. However, we ask for your understanding that not all inquiries can be answered.

In order to continue to ensure contact tracing of vulnerable groups such as hospitals, nursing homes, police, fire brigades, etc., the cases are currently being prioritized with strict priority.

The health department appeals to the personal responsibility of the citizens

Meanwhile, the health department is appealing to the personal responsibility of the district residents. Even without a personal order from the health department, those who have tested positive must go into isolation – suspected cases in quarantine. The contact persons should also be informed independently and immediately in order to break the chain of infection as quickly as possible.

The Kitzinger Health Department also asks you to refrain from telephone inquiries. The lines are overloaded, so problems have already arisen. Contact should therefore be made by e-mail ([email protected]) are included.
