On August 5, local time, according to Spanish media reports, the rebound of the new crown epidemic in Spain in the past few weeks has spread to nursing homes in the country.
Data show that in the first week of July, a total of 141 cases of new coronary pneumonia were confirmed in nursing homes in Spain; by the third week of July, there were 1,029 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia among residents and staff of nursing homes in the country. The rapid spread of the “Delta” mutant strain puts the elderly population at risk again.
The Spanish authorities warned that although the peak of the epidemic cannot be compared with the first and second waves, deaths have begun to occur among the elderly. Authorities in Madrid, Catalonia and other regions have strengthened anti-epidemic measures for visitors to nursing homes. The Spanish authorities also believe that the third dose of the new crown vaccine should be promoted for the elderly. (Headquarters reporter Wei Fan)
