2,913 new corona infections in Austria
After 2,550 new infections yesterday, there were already almost 3,000 people in Austria with 2,913 on Thursday recently being diagnosed with the SARS-CoV-2 virus in 24 hours …
Mayor Paul Weißenbacher (ÖVP) sees the reason for the high number of infections in the unscrupulous behavior of some citizens of the community. He told “ORF Salzburg” that some people have gone to work or shopping despite having an infection in the family.
Quarantine the last possible step
In neighboring Faistenau, where many people from Hinterseer shop or go to the bank, many are afraid of their neighbors, explained the local chief. He put accessories for the citizens of the community in the room. “I’m not going to decide that, it will probably come from the country,” Weißenbacher said. A full quarantine as in Kuchl (Tennengau) in the second half of October is probably the last step.
A spokesman for Governor Wilfried Haslauer (ÖVP) said in the APA request that the additional steps are the result of recommendations from health authorities. “We are in close coordination here. However, a quarantine must be clearly justified from a medical perspective.”
