Three dead, 60 ill in flu outbreak at Cairns aged care facility

Updated 29 Feb 2016, 9:27pm

Three residents in a far north Queensland aged care facility have died during a flu outbreak.

Key points:

  • Three residents die at Mercy Place aged care facility in Cairns, 36 other residents and 24 staff fall ill with respiratory symptoms since February 14
  • Mercy Place had complied with outbreak guidelines, Queensland Health says
  • Family or friends suffering from a respiratory illness should not visit loved ones in aged care facilities until fully recovered

Another 36 residents and 24 staff at Mercy Place in the Cairns suburb of Westcourt have fallen ill with respiratory symptoms since February 14.

The majority of residents and staff were swabbed for common viruses with a significant proportion testing positive for Influenza B.

The majority have since recovered.

Mercy Health Queensland manager Anita Ghose said Mercy Health immediately tried to contain the infection, using medication, ceasing communal activities, cleaning, and limiting non-essential visits to the home.
