There are more suspected cases of corona in schools in the Dresden region. As announced by the authorities, 47 people were tested for the virus at the Wehlen primary school. The school was closed preventively until Friday. Due to an unfortunate mistake, we initially reported 47 people who tested positive. Excuse me, please.
A class was quarantined in Freital
Due to a case at the Geschwister-Scholl-Grundschule in Freital, a full first class was quarantined. In Dresden-Plauen, students of the elementary school and elementary school 49 had to go into quarantine. At the HOGA school in Striesen, contact persons are determined after a case.
The Dresden Health Department is increasing its staff
Meanwhile, the Dresden health department is increasing its staff to identify corona infections. According to the city administration, 15 employees are currently responsible for identifying contact persons in the event of a corona infection. “In view of the increasing number of infections, that will no longer be enough,” said Health Mayor Kristin Klaudia Kaufmann. “We are in the process of strengthening the health department.” The goal is to “enter quarantine measures” quickly.
If a young person is creative, socially engaged, and tested positive, it is important to quickly identify, contact, and isolate an environment of 100 people.
Dresden still expects the number of infections to increase
The Dresden Health Department expects a further increase in corona cases in the fall and winter. Currently, the “Corona traffic light” with 75 new infections in the last week is still “Green”. But in recent days, many infections have been reported in schools and after larger celebrations.
