Mild complaints

29 people with dementia live in Heikant, and most of them have been vaccinated. Currently, 12 people have tested positive and have mild complaints. The Residential Care Center said Sensire is taking measures to prevent further spread of the virus.

Continued transmission of the virus after vaccination

Although almost the entire population has been fully vaccinated, the virus has spread rapidly. This outbreak shows that you can still transmit the coronavirus even if you are vaccinated. The good news is that our population in general shows only mild symptoms. In this regard, the picture is completely different from what it was before the vaccination, says gerontologist Marco Repko.

The infected residents are in their own room in isolation

Residents who have tested positive for the Covid-19 virus are staying in isolation in their own rooms and are being looked after with protective equipment as directed. They are treated by a geriatrician and a nursing specialist. Residents who have tested positive for the Covid-19 virus remain in quarantine and do not have contact with the infected population.
