雷丁社区市中心酒店发现有一个印度变种病毒的病者出现，该酒店位于市中心RG1 牛津大街上。在今年四月底重新开放的 Penta 酒店的 DHSC 检疫设施的居民和工作人员中，已累计发现 44 例 COVID-19 阳性病例。雷丁自治市议会认为，如果酒店刚开业时就採取了正确的安全程序，则可以避免变种在酒店内部以及在某些情况下在更广泛的社区中传播。
该委员会表示, 阳性病例已在客人、酒店和政府运营设施的保安人员之间传播。目前据信社区中至少有三起病例与酒店爆发直接相关。已完成对与疫情有关的已知阳性病例的接触者追踪，并採取了后续行动，英国公共卫生部继续密切关注当地情况。
雷丁的四个地区现在是测试行动的一部分，包括 RG1 7**。这是政府经营的隔离酒店所在的地方。然而，重要的是雷丁地区对「Delta」变异病例的当地分析表明，当地社区的传播源不止一种。雷丁的其他测试区域是 RG1 5**、RG1 6** 和 RG1 3**，完整的站点和开放时间列表可在 www.reading.gov.uk/testnow 上获得。Indian variant found in Reading Penta Hotel
READING Borough Council has called for the Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC) run Quarantine Management Facility (QMF) in Reading to urgently close.
It follows a significant outbreak at the DHSC facility in central Reading which has been linked to several positive cases of the 'Delta' variant which originated in India in the local community.
A cumulative total of 44 positive cases of COVID-19 have been identified among residents and staff at DHSC quarantine facility in the Penta Hotel on the Oxford Road since it opened in late April.
The majority are confirmed by Public Health England (PHE) as being the Delta variant.
The council said positive cases have spread between guests and hotel and security staff based at the Government-run facility.
At this time, it is believed at least three cases in the community have been directly linked to the outbreak at the hotel. Contact tracing of known positive cases linked to the outbreak has been completed with subsequent action taken. Public Health England continue to monitor the local situation closely.
Four areas in Reading are now part of a local surge testing operation, including RG1 7**, which is where the Government operated quarantine hotel is located. However, it is important to note that local analysis of ‘Delta’ variant cases in Reading indicate more than one source of spread in the local community. Other surge testing areas in Reading are RG1 5**, RG1 6** and RG1 3** and a full list of sites and opening hours is available at www.reading.gov.uk/testnow.
Reading Borough Council believes that the spread of the variant both inside the hotel and, in several cases into the wider community, could have been avoided had the correct safety procedures been in place from when the hotel first opened.
