Looking for the infection focus
It is still unclear where the couple from the Heinsberg district got infected. "We cannot guarantee that we will get the infection chains stopped," said NRW Health Minister Karl-Josef Laumann (CDU) at a press conference on Wednesday. According to the minister, the 46-year-old woman and her one-year-old husband from Gangelt in the Heinsberg district near the Dutch border had taken part in social life for up to 14 days after their own infection, in which they could infect other people.
