The local chief says he actually found out at Thursday’s press conference. The governor’s office responded: Freylinger had been at the Chiemseehof for 40 minutes to chat.
Kuchl’s community of 7,450 people shouldn’t have expected a real quarantine. At least the mayor is completely surprised. “We only had one hardening on Tuesday. We assumed that these measures would be sufficient and that as a result the number of infections would decrease. It was absolutely surprising that such hardening occurred in 48 hours,” Mayor Thomas Freylinger (ÖVP) told the APA.
“I got a call from the governor last night saying there was a possible quarantine in the room. I only knew from today’s press conference that it was really coming.”
Governor Wilfried Haslauer’s spokesman Christian Pucher replied: “This is absolute nonsense. Mayor Freylinger was with us for a conversation at Chiemseehof on Wednesday at 5.30pm. The conversation lasted 40 minutes. It was about the quarantine and what considerations we have for Kuchl. ” It was definitely said that Kuchl will almost certainly be quarantined. So it’s by no means true that they only called the local boss.
The challenge now is to answer the most pressing questions for the citizens of Kuchl in the shortest time possible. “For example, what are key workers is not regulated. What happens to parents with separate custody? What happens to parents with hospitalized children? Who compensates the penalties? Is it paid leave for employees if they can’t commute or commute? How if this is decided at the company, “Freylinger cited some examples.
“We currently have countless inquiries that we can no longer answer by phone,” the mayor said. Citizens have been asked to write to the municipality. “I am currently in the process of grouping the incoming questions with the vice mayors, the director general and the Chamber of Commerce and sending them to the country.”
Recently, health authorities were only able to fully trace a small part of the infection chains in the village. Some infections have been known to date back to a benefit event in Kuchl, among other things. But several employees of a company are also sick, 15 residents and employees of the retirement home were recently infected. “But it is important for me to say that there are no culprits. The state measure was also carried out because there was no longer traceable clustering. We have a backlog of many infections in all strata of the population,” Freylinger said. Now he hopes that with the measures imposed today, the number of new infections in Kuchl will decline rapidly.
In the community, the curfew for gastronomy was advanced until 5 pm on Tuesday. At the same time, private celebrations outside company premises were banned across the district and a ban on events was imposed. Measures that are now spreading throughout the country.
