We have planned to expand further the capacity and we hope to be able to accommodate for 45 patients total. For today, I can tell you that there are 17 Covid related patients admitted at Karl Huesner. Of those, 12 are confirmed cases of Covid19; 5 of those patients are being ventilated. Additionally we have 5 patients being investigated for Covid19, but we don't have diagnosis at yet to confirm that in deed they are Covid positive."
Today;'s COVID numbers show 42 persons in the hospital with 5 in the ICU.
