The tests carried out at the Sucre Clinic, where nine members were infected with coronavirus, showed two new positive cases, while waiting to know some missing results.
Meanwhile, details were finalized for the transfer of patients to other health centers.
The manager of the health center, Macelo de la Torre, the two new cases are linked to the staff of the institution
“One is a relative of one of the doctors and the other is a cleaning staff. There are 11 cases so far in total,” he said.
Following the outbreak, more than 300 swabs were performed.
Transfers
Asked about the transfer of patients to other institutions, the province’s Secretary for Health Prevention, Gabriela Barbás said that it is an “extraordinary measure, to get ahead quickly and to cut the transmission chain.”
Of the 38 patients housed in Sucre, 36 are affiliated with Pami and two with Apross.
Firstly, patients who are in a more delicate situation and, later, those who are in common rooms will be transferred.
