Mayor Klaus Schneeberger (ÖVP) said on Monday in the “morning newspaper” Ö1 that it would “certainly not work” until Wednesday. Regarding the exit tests, the council referred to new organizational needs in terms of personnel and corresponding premises. Last weekend, they had already spoken with representatives of the deployment authorities about human resources. On (today) Monday they will negotiate with the country “how the regulation should ultimately be and by when we will have all the facilities so that we can give the population the opportunity to take the test.
At least 15,000 tests are required per day; the number is currently just over 2,000 exams. “It’s irresponsible – and I certainly don’t do that – to check on people who don’t even get a chance to get tested,” Schneeberger emphasized. A hundred militiamen, some 60 fitting rooms and additional premises would be needed. Therefore, the start tests are possible “on Friday at the earliest”.
Schneeberger described the decree of Health Minister Rudolf Anschober (Greens) as “questionable”. It is unclear if the ordinance will be issued before Wednesday “or activities will be established.”
Although the seven-day incidence in the legal city has long been high and is currently 530.3, the mayor does not want to be accused of negligence in dealing with Covid-19. “We did more than the others,” Schneeberger said, referring to the 16 test roads that are now available.
