ALTENA –
Three new patients with the corona virus have been diagnosed in the municipality of Altena. The Central and West Brabant safety region reported this on Tuesday. The GGD says it is busy with further research into possible infections within the municipality.

It was already clear earlier that a woman (49) from Nieuwendijk was suffering from CoViD-19, the disease that transmits the coronavirus. The three new patients are currently in home insulation.
The corona patient from Nieuwendijk was admitted to the Beatrix hospital in Gorinchem for some time. That hospital did not test the woman for the corona virus because there was no reason to do so according to the RIVM protocol. A temporary admission and visitor stop therefore applies at Beatrix Hospital in Gorinchem.
