“Strict conditions”

“There were strict protection requirements at the youth camp,” said archdiocese spokesman Kurt Sonneck. “It was ventilated regularly, it was disinfected, masks were used and hands were washed.” After the first infection occurred at the camp this week, the vacation week ended immediately. All children and adolescents and their companions were immediately tested for Covid. Participants in the vacation camp were staying in separate accommodations and had no contact with anyone else, Sonneck said. In the camp there were a total of 22 children and youth and nine caregivers.

Cluster formation and clustering is one of the four criteria of the Corona traffic light. “We expect a significant increase in positive test results in the coming days, especially in the family environment,” feared Michael Haybäck from the Salzburg district administration. In the city of Salzburg, as of 8:00 am on Sunday, a total of 49 people tested positive, 152 people are categorized as Category 1 contacts, and 48 people are officially restricted as Category 2 contacts.
