She said that they are in the process of refreshing the numbers, pointing out that the investigation showed that the agents were infected outside the hospital, and then transmitted the infection to those in contact with them inside the health institutions.
She confirmed that infection cases were counted inside hospitals, adding that the agents whose results showed positive have been isolated and the rest continue their work as normal.
