In Fukuoka Prefecture, two nurses working at a hospital in Kasuga City were confirmed infected with the new coronavirus on the 12th. At this hospital, since the infection of the patients has been confirmed so far, the prefecture has decided to continue testing, considering that a group of infected people called "cluster" may have occurred.

According to Fukuoka Prefecture, two female nurses in their 20s working at the “Fukuoka Tokushukai Hospital” in Kasuga City were confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus on the 12th.

In this hospital, two male and female inpatients and a female nurse in their 20s have been infected so far, and the prefecture may have developed a group of infected people called a "cluster". We will continue to examine hospital staff and patients.

This hospital is one of the 12 designated infectious disease medical institutions in the prefecture, but all nurses who were infected by the 12th worked in general wards, so the prefecture was infected with the new coronavirus. It does not hinder the acceptance of the elderly.
