As of Tuesday, private parties outside of the seating area are prohibited in Tennengau. Additional restrictions in Kuchl: curfew is brought forward to 5pm and no visitors are allowed in nursing homes.

In view of the rapid increase in the number of infections in Tennengau over the weekend, the state of Salzburg decided to tighten the rules for all of Tennengau on Sunday night. A total event ban applies as of Tuesday, private parties outside the living space are prohibited. Since the number of people infected with Covid-19 is particularly high in Kuchl, the curfew will be brought forward to 170 a.m., the state announced Sunday night.

All sports and music festivals are affected by the event ban, and firefighting exercises and training are also included. Private parties outside the living space are prohibited. “This is controlled extensively and rigorously by the executive,” the broadcast said Sunday night. Gyms will be closed for off-campus use and can no longer be rented to third parties. A maximum of 100 people is allowed to attend funerals. As an added measure for all of Tennengau, starting Tuesday, non-kindergarten children – that is, parents and other companions – can no longer enter the premises and must say goodbye to children at the gate.

As a special measure for Kuchl, in addition to an earlier curfew in the catering sector at 5 pm, it was decided to ban visits to care facilities and for the elderly (except for palliative care). The measures for Tennengau and Kuchl are provisionally applicable from Tuesday, October 13 at 12:00 am to Monday, October 26 at 12:00 am

The infection process of the last days and weeks would have made these measures necessary. While there were around 85 people undergoing active testing for Covid-19 in the Hallein district in the middle of last week, this number rose to 145 at 8:30 am on Sunday. Calculated for 100,000 inhabitants, this corresponds to 238 people in Tennengau, the national average is currently 90. In Kuchl, with 61 active cases, this value is 827.

According to the state medical director, Petra Juhasz, there are currently numerous groups in Tennengau, including the nursing home in Kuchl. Tracking contracts is difficult and personal liability has become very low. More and more authorities are receiving false information.
