In addition to federal regulations, physical contact sporting events are prohibited across the country as of Friday, Governor Hans Peter Doskozil (SPÖ) reported according to the broadcast. We already reported:

Burgenland disrupts adult soccer game!

High-level and youth sports events, as well as non-contact sports, are exempt from the ordinance ban.

Contact sports include soccer, judo, ice hockey, and basketball. The ordinance goes into effect as soon as it is announced. Doskozil claimed that the country was reacting responsibly and appropriately to the new development. Due to the sharp increase in new Covid 19 infections in the last seven days, the Corona traffic light commission decided to set the Neusiedl am See district in the “red” traffic light phase and the Oberpullendorf district in “orange”. The districts of Oberwart and Güssing keep the traffic light color “orange”.

For events not affected by the ban, a maximum of 250 spectators is allowed indoors, while the maximum number is 500 people outdoors. There are assigned and marked seats for spectators.

With the exception of relatives of underage participants, visitors are not allowed in the youth area. Assigned seats must also be used here. Restaurants and bars are not allowed at permitted sporting events. “Our goal is to react as appropriately as possible to current events. That is why we have coordinated this new regulation closely with interested target groups,” explained the Governor.

“All the more incomprehensible” to him is the approach taken by the federal government to the new federal regulation, which will only go into effect on Sunday night: “It is absolutely incomprehensible that Burgenland did not have a text of the regulation a few hours before the planned entry into force, although apparently a draft has been circulating between individual federal states and the minister since Monday, “criticized Doskozil.

He does not understand “that in the current situation, in which people’s health is at stake, the Federal Government apparently acted in its communication with the countries in a partisan way. This is not how a health crisis is handled. it must happen in the future. ” In the future, expect uniform communication with all federal states, the governor said.

The Neusiedl am See district also responded on Friday with its own regulation to the “Red” traffic light status: the maximum number of visitors for all indoor events was limited to 100, for outdoor events to 250. The number of visitors in the Oberpullendorf district it has also adjusted due to the orange status there. The maximum number of people is now 250, outdoors a maximum of 500 people is allowed.
