“The number of infections is too high”
The number of Covid 19 intensive care patients in Austria increased by 25 percent in one week. On Thursday 98 infected people needed intensive medical care, the Ministry of Health highlighted in a transmission. The pandemic continues to grow around the world, stressed department head Rudolf Anschober (Greens). “In Austria, too, the number of infections is too high for the moment. The risk of infection will continue to increase as temperatures drop.”
“Therefore, my call continues to the regions most at risk to pay special attention to rapid tests and the management of quick contacts,” the minister said. “I also call on local authorities to use the new Covid-19 Measures Law and the possibility of additional regional measures and focus precisely on the areas of spread,” Anschober said.
The sometimes sharp increase in the number of infections is noted in several European countries: for example, in Spain with a daily increase of 2.8%, France (2.4), the Netherlands (2.7), Hungary (3 , 5), Slovakia (5.9%). ), Slovenia (3.7) said in the broadcast.
