The positives in medicine increase, other 4 infections among healthcare professionals and patients: the total in the ward is 36

The cluster continues to expand in the medical department at the Cardarelli hospital in Campobasso. As the swabs are repeated, other positives come out.

Today, Monday 18th January, 4 further cases of contagion were found: 2 nurses, 1 auxiliary and 1 patient. The total of positives in medicine therefore rises to 36.

They are infected the head of the ward, 2 doctors, the head nurse, 8 nurses, 1 auxiliary and 23 patients. A situation that becomes more and more difficult as the days go by. It should also be considered that within the same hospital, which we remember to be the only regional Covid center and the only hub for time-dependent diseases, there are positives in surgery too: in the latter department they should not exceed 30 units. So the infections in the ordinary wards should be about 60, to which must be added the 70 hospitalized in the Covid wards. This is probably the most difficult moment for the Cardarelli di Campobasso health workers.

In the departments of Medicine and Surgery, as is known, there is a stop to scheduled hospitalizations and emergencies are diverted to the Covid free departments.
