On the other hand, there are 864 recoveries, which means that the number of actively ill people in Austria has decreased by around three percent to 8,329. However, the balance is negative both in the number of deaths, which increased by more than six to 796, and in the number of hospitalizations.
“The excessively high number of new infections is also increasingly reflected in hospitals: 491 patients are already being treated in hospitals, representing a 25 percent increase in one week. 90 of those hospitalized require intensive care.” this number has increased by a fifth in the last seven days. 49 of them are in intensive care in Vienna, “commented Health Minister Rudolf Anschober on the current development. In a 24-hour comparison, the increase in hospital patients is 22 people or 4.7 percent, with two intensive care patients added during this period.
Upper Austria second
In the last 24 hours, in which 16,586 PCR tests were recorded, Vienna was also hit mainly with 308 new infections, again more than 50 percent of the total number. Upper Austria came in second with 92 new cases, where 45 Covid patients are currently being treated in the hospital and six more in the intensive care unit.
The 16,586 PCR tests are distributed quite differently between individual federal states, with 6,896 there were nearly 7,000 in Vienna, but only 503 from Salzburg and 321 from Tyrol were reported, while in Vorarlberg and Burgenland, both behind the two in terms of population. other federal states: 1,037 or 833 tests have been reported in the last 24 hours. 1,586,578 tests have been carried out for the coronavirus in Austria since the outbreak of the pandemic.
“The numbers are still too high”
In any case, the Health Minister called on the federal districts and states with the highest risk to “use the new Covid law and, in addition to comprehensive federal measures, anchor additional measures that are precisely oriented to regional causes of spread.” The number of new infections must be significantly reduced throughout Austria. Although it was possible to limit the strong increases in mid-September and avoid exponential growth, “the numbers are still too high for now.”
