More clusters of coronavirus have appeared in Lower Austria. In the vicinity of the Lower Austrian sports center in St. Pölten, seven people tested positive for the virus, and there was also a suspected case, a spokesman for Health Councilor Ulrike Königsberger-Ludwig (SPÖ) said on Sunday.
“The athletes showed no symptoms”
The cases were noted during a preventive investigation. “The athletes were showing no symptoms before the tests and are still symptom free,” Andreas Worenz, the center’s sports coordinator, said in a broadcast.
