However, it gets complicated when the number of new infections reaches a value of between 5,000 and 8,000 a day for two weeks, researchers from Complexity Science Hub have calculated. According to complexity researcher Peter Klimek, a large-scale lockdown is not necessary “tomorrow or next week,” but such an increase in long-term infections cannot be ruled out.
Also keep in mind that infections are not spread evenly across the country. The critical value of 5,000 to 8,000 new infections per day is also related to the current age distribution. If there are more groups in nursing homes, the intensive care units are already full sooner, Popper says.
Lock schedule denied
At the Foreign Ministry they reject any lockdown plan. The chancellor, together with the Minister of Health, Rudolf Anschober, has just announced measures that have not even entered into force. They apply from Friday of this week.
Government leaders hope the measures are designed to break the rate of increase in the number of infected people. It remains to be seen whether the desired success will be achieved.
If this does not materialize and the numbers rise uncontrollably, things could turn critical and the fate of Austria threatened like Ireland or the Czech Republic. It is already locked again.
