now, With 496 of the reported fatalities, books, our country is in a sad sterfterecord. In the past 24 hours, given up to 325 people, and the corona virus in the country, for the most part, in residential and care homes. It was reported Sciensano still 171 deaths in Dutch nursing homes is between 18 and 31 march. This brings the official death toll at 3.019-to-face.

Earlier this week, the death toll is already a huge leap. As reported Sciensano of death-in the Flemish residential care facilities are between 1 and 4, the end of april. It was also made clear that the figures prior to 1st april yet to be announced had to be done. That’s going on now. Significant jumps in the most basic level. As the figures in Flemish homes for the elderly, since april 5 with a two-day delay is an integral part of the overall grade.

in Comparison with other countries, the death toll in our country is high. “But in comparison, it is very, very difficult,” stated virologist is in order, Steven Van Gucht, several times. “In the majority of countries, only hospitaalsterftes with it. We have many cases in the residential care facilities involved. In addition, in our figures, including those for whom there is a mere suspicion of infection. I can see the other countries that have not (yet) to do that.”

the Decline in the hospitals.

The figures place the drama in a lot of Flemish homes for the elderly subject. If we are to have all of the Flemish figures on the residential care homes (45 percent of the deaths took place. In Wallonia, there has been a 36 per cent., in Brussels, in 32 percent of the time.

That is, the number of deaths continues to rise due to the large part of the residential care centres, which are not to be added to the overall score. “In the hospitals, taking the number of deaths fell,” says biostatisticus: Geert Molenberghs (ku Leuven/hasselt university). “We are seeing a stabilization in the number of hospital admissions, is on the IC, is the number of coronapatiënten today, even the slightly decreased, decreases the number of deaths.”

In the residential centers, it is difficult to find a daily trend to be observed. A lot of numbers come up more slowly and often, it is also to be suspected of the covid of 19 patients. “Actually, we could, like, Marc Van Ranst early on, the two figures of death, in hospitals and in the homes of’s must be split in order to have a better understanding,” says Molenberghs.

many of the deaths are in nursing homes, according to the professor, we may be certain issues had to be addressed. “But in hindsight, it’s easy to talk to. It makes it even more apparent how vulnerable that group is. This is where we need to absolutely take into account when we set the action to start to wear off.”
