Late reports from labs
In the last seven days, 159 people tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 per day, in the previous week it was 127. Today’s figures include late reports from labs and a backlog of processing caused by the very high demand for tests as well. such as the very high number of identified contact persons. In the past 14 days, exactly 15,480 Level 1 contacts and 2,580 Level 2 contacts were identified from 1,934 new positive findings.
That shows the numbers for the last few weekends. While there were 254 people who tested positive the last weekend in August and 240 the weekend before, we recorded a statistical outlier last weekend of 139.

The Vienna test road now also for contact persons without symptoms
The test lane at the Ernst Happel Stadium continues for the Viennese until 9:00 PM today. In addition to travelers returning from risk-free countries within the meaning of the federal government’s COVID entry regulation and for travelers returning from federal states with a stay of 4 days or more, the test route at Ernst Happel Stadium now it is also open to another group.
Symptom-free contacts who tested positive, as long as they have a car, now have a choice with 1450 – either a test is carried out at home via mobile home sampling or on the test road at the Stadium Ernst Happel (analogous to the procedure already existing in other federal states). This option must be agreed at 1450 before arrival.
