On the morning of November 25, 14 new cases of covid-19 were registered in our district. The number of infected in the district hospital also increased: 11 employees and 14 patients were infected there (these are patients from the district hospital, not patients brought from other districts or from our district, who were admitted to the hospital for covid-19).
Chief Specialist of the Rokiškis Section of the National Center for Public Health, Acting Head of the Section, Daivutė Bulovienė “Rokiškio Sirenai” He said that all those patients were transferred to a special room dedicated to covid-19.
Currently, 169 cases of covid-19 have been registered in the Rokiškis district since the beginning of the infection. 53 people recovered, 115 were treated and one person died.
D. Bulovienė, the lead specialist of the Rokiškis branch of the National Center for Public Health, serving as the head of the department, emphasized: Covid-19 patients should immediately inform both their employers and educational institutions for children.
“The patient is the first to receive information about the disease. It is their duty to immediately inform their employer and, if they have children, the children’s educational establishments. We did not expect the sick to be negligent until we found such a case: the disease was diagnosed in a Rokiškė over the weekend, and he only reported it to the child’s educational institution on Tuesday evening. Luckily, at least he did not let his son go to school, “said the interlocutor.
Why This Report Matters: Helps to quickly trace patient contacts and prevent further spread of disease. “Let’s be responsible, protect ourselves and others,” urged D. Bulovienė.
