Other clusters in Lower Austria

More coronavirus clusters have appeared in Lower Austria. In the vicinity of the Lower Austrian sports center in St. Pölten, seven people tested positive for the virus, and there was also a suspected case, a spokesman for Health Councilor Ulrike Königsberger-Ludwig (SPÖ) said on Sunday.

The cases were noted during a preventive investigation. “The athletes were showing no symptoms before the tests and are still symptom free,” Andreas Worenz, the center’s sports coordinator, said in a broadcast. Until a new test scheduled for Tuesday, affected groups should be informed online and training plans drawn up at home.

“The picture is similar to that of the previous days,” said the spokesman. A “small group” also turned up at the Waldviertel: six participants in a twilight bar at an inn tested positive. Another sick person was reported in connection with a bakery in Hagenbrunn (Korneuburg district), thus the number of infected people here increased to 18.

Call for infected toilet types in Zillertal Tyrol

A coronavirus-infected toilet guy working at the Fichtensee in the Zillertal Arena (Aschau municipality) has triggered a public appeal from the state of Tyrol. Since the children were cared for for this and he came into contact with numerous people through his work on boat rentals, there is a high risk of infection, the state press office said.

Children who were helped to put on their life jackets on September 7 between 8 am and 4 pm in Fichtensee are considered risk contact persons. Parents are asked to contact the Schwaz district administration hotline, telephone 05242 69315880. Affected school-age children cannot attend school until September 18, the state of Tirol announced.

The people who rented a boat on September 7 asked health authorities to closely monitor their health. If symptoms such as cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, or sudden loss of taste and smell occur, you should immediately contact the 1450 Health Hotline.
