Coronavirus: situation point in Normandy - January 25, 2022

Epidemiological situation

An exceptionally high regional impact

As of January 25, 2022, Normandy has a record incidence rate of 3,268.9 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, an increase of + 29.2 % in one week.

In this context of high circulation of the virus, vaccination and respect for barriers are more than ever essential to protect themselves, protect others and protect our health system as a whole.

On any occasion, in particular in closed places, barriers must be scrupulously applied: avoid hugs, wash your hands regularly, keep the mask especially in the presence of Fragile people, respect the distancing and regularly ventilate the parts (at least10 minutes every hour, or even continuously if possible during meals).It is also recommended to avoid rallies: the fewer we are, the less risk we take.

Hospital stays of positive patients in COVVI-19 continue to increase

As of January 24, 1,403 people with COVID-19 are hospitalized (1,202 last week), including 131 in intensive care (130 during the last point of situation).

On average, conventional hospital entries are 50 per day, and 4 entries per day in intensive care.This situation encourages protection by vaccination recall.

Before going to the emergency room, adopt the reflex 15

Faced with the rise of epidemic pressure on hospitals and tensions on the supply of care, ARS Normandy has asked all public and private health establishments in the region to activate their "white plan".

In this context of epidemic recovery and co-circulation of winter and COVID-19 viruses, and in order to limit the overload of emergencies by inappropriate passages, ARS Normandy recalls that before moving to the emergency room,You have to contact 15.Regulatory doctors are indeed available to the appellants, to give them directly From an adapted medical response, ranging From advice to emergency management.

Maximum mobilization for screening

Between January 16 and 22, 332,225 people were tested, including 107,987 (83,270 the previous week) presented a positive result.The positivity rate rises to 32.5 % against 23.25 % the previous week.

The strong circulation of virus in our region leads to a significant increase in screening demand.

Faced with this high demand, Normandy health professionals are fully mobilized in the context of screening, in laboratories, in pharmacies, in office or in the round trip. La liste des sites de dépistages permanents est disponible sur santé.Fr : grâce à la mobilisation des professionnels, ce sont plus de 3 000 structures qui sont désormais identifiées dans la région.

En plus des sites de dépistage pérennes, l'ARS Normandie organise régulièrement des opérations de dépistage aller-vers afin de casser au plus tôt les chaînes de transmission du virus : une vingtaine d’opérations sont prévues d’ici la fin du mois dans la région (à retrouver sur le site internet de l’ARS Normandie).

The work continues, in connection with the prefectures, in order to continue to rise in charge and offer new screening solutions.

In doubt, if you are in touch or have symptoms, have you tested.

To facilitate the access of Normans to vaccination and allow as many people as possible to benefit From vaccination coverage in primary vaccination or recall, many devices are deployed throughout the territory: centers, pharmacies, firms, healthAt work, "alle-verses" operations ...

In order to continue the rise of the vaccination campaign, many vaccination centers have already increased their days and opening hours.At the same time, the mobilization of city health professionals (general practitioners, pharmacists, nurses, etc..) continues.

Beyond the permanent vaccination offer, first-time operations are implemented throughout the region, in connection with prefectures, communities and health professionals. Ces opérations sont consultables sur le site de l’ARS Normandie en cliquant sur le lien suivant (liste mise à jour en continu).
