Isselburg, 18 March 2021 - Although in one case an infected child and in the other an infected caregiver had contact with other children and caregivers all day, the infections remained isolated cases and did not spread throughout the facilities. In both kindergartens in Borken, children are cared for in group rooms that have been equipped with the deconta R150 air purifiers since the beginning of the pandemic in spring 2020. As part of the overall concept, it was thus possible to prevent the Corona virus from spreading. The PCR tests of all contact persons car-ried out promptly showed: no one became infected, and in the rooms equipped with the air filters there was no other Corona case in the care facility, although the infected persons had direct contact with the children. more
