[ad_1]

Preparations by the city of Salzburg, the Red Cross, the Armed Forces, the volunteer fire brigade and the police, as well as individual locations, have been in full swing in recent days. Next weekend, Friday 11th and Saturday 12th December, the massive crown events of the city of Salzburg will take place in the Salzburg Exhibition Center, in Terminal 2 of the Airport and in the Congress House. In the exhibition center, a total of 55 test lanes will be installed in halls 1, 2/6 and 10, where Salzburg residents will be able to test.

Many helpers in action

The Red Cross provides a total of 1,200 employees for testing throughout Salzburg. When it comes to safety, State Rescue Commander Anton Holzer sees his organization as prepared as possible: “All employees are very well trained and wear protective clothing, there is no risk of infection.” A smear on the nose is actually more pleasant than a throat smear on the mouth. ” The volunteer fire brigade is also on a large scale on test days. The Florianijüngers have been working on preparations since Monday so that everything runs as smoothly as in Annaberg-Lungötz. A total of 2,500 firefighters are on duty. That’s a quarter of a total of 10,000 active people in the country.

No registration for bulk testing

You do not need to register in advance to take the exam. You must bring your electronic card and identification to register on the site. Do not forget the mandatory protection for the mouth and nose. Important for everyone tested: only those who tested positive will receive a call after the first test to proceed to a PCR test.

Use of public transport for arrival and departure is strongly recommended. If necessary, Salzburg AG will reinforce bus lines to test locations so that passengers do not get too close. In addition, during the test period from 8 am to 6 pm, a 15-minute shuttle service will run from the Kleßheim stadium parking lot to the exhibition center and the airport.
