Corona alarm at the Altlengbach school (Sankt Pölten district). Several employees tested positive and 60 children had to be quarantined.
“Now we have also been caught,” Daniel Kosak, deputy chief of staff for Federal Minister Elisabeth Köstinger and deputy mayor of Altlengbach, commented the events in the Lower Austrian commercial city (Sankt Pölten district) on Twitter. Several employees in the school and daycare aftercare tested positive for Covid-19. More than 60 children have to stay home in quarantine for the next few days.
All teachers and staff evaluated
The tests of all teachers and employees of the community were organized and carried out immediately via the health phone 1450. The results are expected by email on Wednesday. “I hope my employees survive the infections well and make a full recovery,” said Kosak. The municipal office can only be contacted temporarily by phone or email.
Basically all school traffic lights in Lower Austria are currently yellow, which means that outside of class, students and teachers must wear mouth and nose protection. In addition, physical education classes are held outdoors. But there are autonomous action areas for schools, which may set an adjustment due to fear that corona cases will increase, which is happening now in Tulln: Tulln HAK is introducing a mask requirement in classes.
