First visit bans in clinics in the north

Hospitals in the north are currently experiencing a significant burden from the corona pandemic. The supply situation is still tense, said the managing director of the hospital company, Patrick Reimund. In addition to the increasing number of patients infected with corona, the many cases of illness among the workforce are a problem, Reimund said. On the other hand, hospitals, including the west coast clinics, now want to take action with bans on visits.

The hotline for the medical on-call service is receiving an increasing number of calls that can be linked to the number of infections, as the spokesman for the Schleswig-Holstein Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians, Nikolaus Schmidt, announced.

The corona incidence in Hamburg has increased significantly in the past seven days - calculated since Tuesday. However, it is still at a low level compared to the rest of Germany. The health authority put the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants on Tuesday at 435.98. Last Tuesday the value was 352.44, the week before that it was 333.59. According to the information, 8,303 new infections were added in one week. In the previous week, 6712 new cases were reported.

According to the authorities, the number of people infected with the corona virus in the hospitals in the Hanseatic city rose to 460 (as of Monday). That was 47 more than reported a week ago. 30 patients were treated in intensive care units - 11 more than in the previous week.
