As a result of NHK's announcement about the new coronavirus infection in Tokyo and the information released by medical institutions, at least 454 people in the medical institutions such as inpatients, doctors, and nurses in Tokyo by this month 21st. It turns out that people were infected. During this period, the calculation was about 14% of the number of infected people announced by the metropolitan government, and the metropolitan government said, "There are medical institutions suspected of nosocomial infections, and we would like to dispatch experts to prevent infection from spreading." I am talking.
NHK summarized the number of medical personnel infected with the new coronavirus based on the information released by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and information published by medical institutions. As a result, at least 454 people including inpatients, doctors and nurses were found to have been infected by the 21st of this month. In the same period, the total number of infected people announced by the city was 3,306, which is about 14% of medical personnel.
The most common cases of infection are
▼ 201 people at Yongju General Hospital in Taito Ward ▼
95 people at Nakano Ekoda Hospital in Nakano Ward ▼
40 people at Metropolitan Sumito Hospital in Sumida Ward.
Of these, 30 patients have died since March 20 at Yongju General Hospital, where inpatients and doctors have been infected one after another. Eiju General Hospital has stopped accepting outpatients and ambulances, and does not accept new hospitalizations.
In addition, at Tokyo Metropolitan Sumito Hospital, 38 patients including other patients, doctors, and nurses became clear within a week after the infection of 2 patients was confirmed on 14th of this month. We have stopped accepting.
While there are a lot of people in Tokyo who do not know the route of infection, it is highly likely that cases where more than a few dozen at one hospital were infected in the hospital. The Metropolitan Government's Department of Health and Welfare “has not fully grasped the whole picture yet. We take seriously the fact that some medical institutions are dying and that multiple medical institutions are still under restrictions such as medical treatment. I would like to make thorough efforts to prevent the spread of infection by distributing the organized checklist and dispatching experts. ”
