The situation in some old people’s homes in the Offenbach district has worsened. The number of new infections remains high.
The situation in the nursing homes in the Offenbach district has worsened. According to the district administration, as of Wednesday, around 320 residents were infected, two weeks ago there were 270.
According to the administration, the high numbers also have to do with the fact that the disease often lasts for several months in older people. The number of new infections is falling. However, the values are still very high – within seven days, according to the health department, 56 more people in nursing homes tested positive, much more than the average for the general population.
According to the administration, a good 47 percent, i.e. about half of those who died in the district of or with Covid-19, lived in old people’s homes. The Phönix senior citizen center Ahornhof in Langen, where around 80 people had tested positive, was hardest hit.
The death rate in the Offenbach district in connection with Covid-19 is now over 100 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. A ray of hope: almost half of the residents and around 600 nursing staff received the second vaccination. jon
