Dozens of people were infected with the corona virus at a family celebration in Bielefeld (North Rhine-Westphalia). Ten schools are affected, almost 1700 people are now in quarantine!
A city spokesman said Monday that they included 1,100 students and teachers.
On Sunday night, the city announced that the total number of known infections in connection with the private celebration was 36. According to an estimate by the State Health Center NRW, a total of 130 people were infected in Bielefeld on Monday.
The increase in the number of cases caused a large avalanche at an urban driving test station on Monday. The city asked citizens at noon not to use the station on Monday. “The test center is overloaded and traffic is already backing up,” he said in a message.
The quarantine orders affected individual or multiple classes and grades, as well as school teachers.
According to a spokeswoman, it was a private celebration in private premises. It took place last week. “The health department has started contact tracking and will be in contact with affected people throughout the weekend,” the city announced on Friday. Since follow-up is still ongoing, the number of people who tested positive could increase even more.
