Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP) has been satisfied with the course of the massive crown tests so far. He was not surprised that there were some technical problems, the head of government said in the ORF ZiB special on Friday night in view of the project’s scale. Ultimately, it was possible to handle testing everywhere in such a way that participants were not affected.
There were rare special praise from the Chancellor of Vienna, where, as a metropolis with a population of millions, organizing is more difficult, but “it worked very well.” Around 24,000 people signed up for the tests in Vienna on the first day. Of these, 112 people tested positive and then underwent a PCR test performed by the Vienna health authorities at the testing centers.
It was also recognized that there was no problem at Vorarlberg, who organized the tests more or less independently.
Briefly suggest repetition
Kurz assured that it would not be the last test. The Chancellor indicated a replay, not wanting to commit to a date. The Chancellor also provided specific tests for groups that have many contacts, such as school personnel. Kurz put a third as “decent participation”, but more participants would be better.
The Chancellor sees room for improvement in the group of older people. In those older than 85 years, the incidence of cases is twice as high as in the general population. This is about presentations in nursing homes.
