RIVM posted:

Almost 4% of the employees examined in hospitals in Brabant have the new corona virus (COVID-19). This is apparent from the sample from the RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment between 6 and 9 March. The findings from the study support the policy implemented last Friday. It does, however, require a few extensions.

The fact that healthcare workers are infected with the corona virus can mean several things. It is possible that the percentage of infections in hospitals is a representation of the number of infections among the Brabant population. But it could also mean that the percentage of infections among hospital staff is higher, because they can come into contact with the virus sooner because of their work. The RIVM will investigate this even further.

Test results

1097 employees were tested in hospitals from 6-8 March. 3.9% indeed appeared to have the corona virus. The percentages differ per hospital and are between 0 and 10%. 200 patients were also tested. On average, 9% of these patients had the virus. There too, there are differences between hospitals. The people who were tested already had complaints.

Advice and measures

The advice that RIVM previously gave to prevent the virus from spreading remains valid. This concerns general hygiene measures and the call not to shake hands. In Noord-Brabant, the advice is to avoid social contacts as much as possible in the event of a cold, cough or fever. In Noord-Brabant, specific advice on working at home as much as possible and avoiding visits to busy places remains valid.

Events

The central government has a framework that can help municipalities in considering whether or not to continue major events. New measures for events were announced this afternoon in Noord-Brabant.

Hospitals

RIVM has conducted this research in close collaboration with the hospitals in the province: Bravis (Roosendaal & Bergen op Zoom), Jeroen Bosch (Den Bosch), Bernhoven (Uden), Radboudumc Radboud University Medical Center (Nijmegen), Amphia (Breda) , VieCuri (Venlo), Catharina (Eindhoven), Elkerliek (Helmond), Elizabeth Twee Steden (Tilburg). Although the Radboudumc and VieCuri are not located in the province of Noord-Brabant, they do have many employees who live in Noord-Brabant.

I work on a major 30k+ student public university in VA and all our students are gone for spring break this week. the administration is showing absolutely no sign of having prepared for anything but having the students come back and attend class regularly.

i smoke cigarettes and I'm going to die because some dickhead frat boy coming back from italy, or maybe my IT guy who just got back from japan, coughs on me
