Health Minister Rudolf Anschober (Greens) has promised “greater regional differentiation, even within district boundaries” with respect to the Corona traffic light. This is “our fixed plan,” Anschober said on Saturday in a broadcast from the state of Tyrol. The minister had met with Governor Günther Platter (ÖVP) in Innsbruck on Friday evening for a working discussion.
Platter had urged such differentiation in the run-up to the meeting and named Alpbachtal currently infection-free in the Kufstein district, which was changed to yellow, as an example. “The first experiences have shown that the communities or individual regions of the valleys are not mapped with sufficient precision when evaluating epidemiological situations,” the regional chief emphasized on Saturday.
Anschober also assured Platter of the desired uniform regulation at the national level for winter tourism: the apres ski keyword. This should be presented and presented by the ministry in the next two weeks, he said. Politicians also apparently agreed on a third Corona issue. In the future, resident physicians should be able to perform a PCR smear test to increase testing capabilities. Platter was glad that the Minister of Health had accepted this request. (apa)
